Thriller Political
From one of America’s most compelling novelists comes the
mesmerizing story of a lawyer who must defend the woman he
loves against a charge of conspiring to assassinate the
prime minister of Israel David Wolfe’s
life is approaching an exhilarating peak: he’s a successful
San Francisco lawyer, he’s about to get married, and he’s
being primed for a run for Congress. But when the phone
rings and he hears the voice of Hana Arif—the Palestinian
woman with whom he had a secret affair in law school—he
begins a completely unexpected journey. The next day, the
prime minister of Israel is assassinated by a suicide bomber
while visiting San Francisco; soon, Hana herself is accused
of being the mastermind behind the murder. Now David faces
an agonizing choice: Will he, a Jew, represent Hana—who may
well be guilty—or will he turn away the one woman he can
never forget?
The most
challenging case of David’s career requires that he delve
deep into the lives of Hana Arif and her militant
Palestinian husband, both of whom have always lived in
exile. Ultimately, David’s quest takes him to Israel and the
West Bank, where, in a series of harrowing encounters, he
learns that appearances are not at all what they
seem. Culminating in a tense and
startling trial with international ramifications,
Exile is that rare novel that both entertains and
enlightens. At once an intricate tale of betrayal and
deception, a moving love story, and a fascinating journey
into the lethal politics of the Middle East, this is Richard
North Patterson at his most brilliant and engrossing.
