β¦ Synopsis
"Matt Beynon Rees has taken a complex world of culture clash and suspicion and placed upon it humanity." --David Baldacci, author of The Camel Club
"A beautifully written story. I have walked the streets of Bethlehem with Omar Yussef, smelled the dust and the fear, tasted his food, shared his anger and his hope. His decency is a light in the gloom. I shall not forget him." --Anne Perry, author of Dark Assassin
"The Collaborator of Bethlehem is the best--and the rarest--sort of mystery: exciting and compelling, but it is also a deeply moving story that will, for many readers, shed much needed light on the conditions in the Palestinian territories. Matt Beynon Rees's ability to blend the political and the emotional is reminiscent of Graham Greene." --David Liss, author of The Ethical Assassin
"Omar Yussef has everything I admire in a detective: humility, humanity, a great faith in the power of knowledge and a few bad habits too!"...
