THE BOOK FAIR

Jerusalem lies at the center of the intelligent and action oriented novel driven by suspense, intrigue, and history.  Erez smoothly winds the plot around a nebbish professor of ancient Hebrew writings.  Enticed to authenticate ancient manuscripts, the professor accepts a job that pulls him into a murder mystery.

The author infuses the story with mysteries and teachings of Kabbalah as he presents fascinating and extraordinary accounts of Jewish history in many different periods.  Erez describes the many torturous conquests of Jerusalem, the heart of Israel and the Jewish people.

The complexity of symbolism and multi-layered historical subjects set the book apart from a simplistic mystery.
