Walls of Jericho

"Land flirts with the style of the technothriller, but stays aloof enough from it and from getting mired in ancillary detail enough to develop characters who suffer banal and venal human frailties, which makes them all the more attractive. I liked the battle of the sexes buddy-teaming of a sultry female Shin-Bet (read Israeli FBI) agent with a Detroit-reared Palestinian-sympathizing police detective, whose personal and professional politics are both complex enough to be better than cynical.Land, Jon is the author of 'Walls of Jericho', published 0000 under ISBN 9780812564563 and ISBN 0812564561.
