Kamal and Barnea [are] touching and accessible characters. . . . There are also some sharp political insights into how prospects in the Middle East have deteriorated."-Publishers WeeklyonBlood Diamonds "Jon Land shows a true feel for detective work and the irony of pursuing elusive principles of justice in a region torn by ancient strifes. . . . But Land has grander designs for his story, which whisks off to Rome and turns into a full-bore thriller involving secret armies and a 2,000-year-old conspiracy. Land is comfortable on this turf, too, bringing a terrible conviction to the religious war he envisions."-The New York Times Book ReviewonA Walk in the Darkness "Ben Kamal is rapidly becoming one of the best and most unique crime serial characters in all the genre. . . .A Walk in the Darknessis even more slick and tight than its predecessors."-The Boston Book Review "The trail is as a torturous as a John LeCarreacute; tale. . . .
