From award-winning and internationally acclaimed author,
Batya Gur, comes this riveting mystery in which a shocking double murder at
Israel's top academic institution brings Superintendent Michael Ohayon to the
scene to probe the nature of creativity and unravel the mystery.
In investigating the deaths of a professor of
literature and his junior colleague, Superintendent
Michael Ohayon raises profound ethical questions about the
relationship between the artist and his creation, and between the artist and a
moral code. It brings him into contact with the academic elite and reveals the
social problems and differing perspectives of Israel's various classes.
Known as the Israeli Agatha Christie, Batya
Gur's The Literary Murder is a
clever, compelling, and suspenseful mystery that will leave readers entertained
up until the final, harrowing conclusion.
