✦ Synopsis
Ruth Shidlo does it again with her new spellbinding international thriller, "Preventable Tragedies."
In this third installment of the Helen Mirkin series, Shidlo reveals a nuanced view of the seemingly futile and sometimes terrifying clash between competing worlds, and the underlying sense of what might have been, ‘if only.’
Back in Tel Aviv, DI Helen Mirkin has joined the National Serious and International Crimes Unit. An Interpol alert regarding an international ring involved in selling counterfeit drugs to fund terrorist activities leads to a cascade of events in Israel, Greece, and Portugal. Unfolding events include people becoming sick with mysterious ailments and the unveiling of a planned terrorist attack. Meanwhile, Helen is consulted regarding the death of a high-ranking executive in a company producing food supplements, an inquiry which questions the ethics of the pharmaceutical industry.
DI Helen Mirkin and her local and international colleagues find themselves in a race against time to put a stop to these nefarious activities before more people are hurt.
A must read for fans of Daniel Silva and vintage Jonathan Kellerman, as well as Shidlo’s current and future fans.
