A Possibility of Violence: An Inspector Avraham Avraham Novel - Softcover
The threat to the innocent. An explosive device is found outside a nursery in Tel Aviv. The children are taken to safety; a man is caught fleeing the scene. The fear of the father. Chaim Sara, taking care of his children alone, watches with anticipation as the police search for clues and his sons grow more unsettled. The suspicion of the guilty. Inspector Avraham is sure that off the street, and in the home, a darker possibility hides. If he is right, a child is in danger. If he is right.

Review:
'Definitely lives up to the promise of its excellent predecessor ... Strong on police procedure and quotidian detail, with a refreshingly average and self-doubting protagonist, A Possibility of Violence is both tense and touching' Laura Wilson, Guardian. * Guardian * 'Compelling ... Morally complex and psychologically convincing, A Possibility of Violence is a terrifying and disturbing psychological drama' Sunday Herald. * Sunday Herald *

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A suspicious device is found inside a suitcase near a nursery in Holon, Tel Aviv. The children are taken to safety; a man is caught fleeing the scene. Then comes the phone call: 'the suitcase is only the beginning.' And it is.Chaim Sara's son is glad not to be at nursery that day. He has been bullied - there are bruises. Chaim, taking care of both his children since the sudden absence of his wife, watches with anticipation as the police search for clues.Inspector Avraham is thrust into the investigation, still haunted by the failure of his last case. Witnesses are unforthcoming; suspects are eliminated. Then a frightening act of violence shifts his understanding. The suitcase has alerted him to a greater danger; one more private, and deeply disturbing. No one believes in it but him. And he will do anything to stop it in its tracks. A bomb by a nursery propels a father to take extreme steps to protect his children, in a profoundly haunting detective novel by the international Israeli sensation.
