A Possibility of Violence

Als Inspektor Avi Avraham aus seinem Urlaub zurückkehrt, wird neben einem Kindergarten in Cholon ein Sprengsatz gefunden. Eine Attrappe, wie sich herausstellt, aber bald darauf geht eine Warnung ein, dass das erst der Anfang sei. Avi muss sich mit seinen Ermittlungen beeilen und trifft auf eine Mauer des Schweigens. Doch dann findet Avi eine Spur, die alles in ein anderes Licht rückt, eine, an die außer ihm niemand glaubt.

'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.

Vorwort
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.
