Finally, a book set in Palestine in today's world, Rees does a great job of telling an unbiased story ( )
  fordbarbara | Jun 25, 2009 |
A remarkable story difficult to put down once you start to read. The author has captured the atmosphere and terror of the area. He demonstrates through the narrative, the tortured complexity of this part of the World. The brutality of the life but also the age old attitudes of the people. Their respect for the courtesies that have been part of their way of life for generations which value respect for the individual. He has also demonstrated the corrosive nature of the conflicts that have destroyed so much of the area. ( )

Omar Yussef (character)

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0618959653, Paperback)

The murder of a leader of the Palestinian Martyrs Brigade leads to the arrest of George Saba, a Palestinian Christian accused of collaborating with the Israelis. Omar Yussef, a modest history teacher at a United Nations school in the West Bank, is impelled to investigate the murder to exonerate his former pupil, who he knows is innocent. As he struggles to save George, Omar Yussef is drawn into a complex plot where it is impossible to tell friend from enemy.
