Thriller
The father of a modern orthodox Jewish family works as a compliance officer at a bank in New Jersey. When he discovers that his bank is violating OFAC laws and funding terrorists in the Middle East he alerts the bank’s top brass. They ignore him. After struggling with the conflict between his position as a fully assimilated member of his professional community and his moral obligations as a man and a Jew, he turns whistle-blower and goes to the DOJ. The night before his deposition he disappears.
Eliana Golden was thirteen when her father disappeared. Years later, after surprising her family by joining the NYPD, Eliana meets a mysterious and alluring soldier, a man who is far more dangerous than Eliana —and everyone except those at the highest and most secret levels of the U.S. government—understands. And he knows exactly what happened to her father. What follows is a journey into the darkest depths of America’s covert war against homegrown terrorism and the horrific moral compromises it can entail. THE MEANING OF THE MURDER is a psychological drama and a meditation on the moral ambiguity of violence, telling the multi-layered story of a family recovering from trauma, a detective determined to solve a crime, and the price we pay for safety in the war on terror.
