Synopsis
'Outstanding... Dark, gripping and often moving.' Economist
It is a blistering morning in Gaza, as Omar Yussef struggles along the uneven streets to carry out a school inspection. But when he learns that a fellow teacher has been accused of links to the CIA, and jailed, his suspicions are immediately aroused. And the more Yussef investigates the arrest, the more people seem to be implicated, and the murkier his search for the truth becomes.
With the police force, the military and Gaza's most powerful gang all out to silence him, Yussef must face the terrifying realisation that he is no longer fighting to save his colleague - but himself.

Review
"'Meet the next big sleuth in crime fiction... A genuine gripper.' Independent: The Saladin Murders, the second in the Omar Yussef mystery series, continues to build a major new crime franchise. 'Intricate and clever... What makes this book so outstanding is its evocation of daily life in hideous circumstances, and the survival of human decency in an utterly indecent situation.' Literary Review 'This book stands out from the pack... A dark and lonely tale.' Glasgow Herald"
