Next Year in Jerusalem

With Alex Stone leading his quick response unit in the clandestine operations against high-tech, international terrorism and Doc Martini conducting his own investigations into domestic crime, this intense but panoramic novel moves rapidly across continents into the intrigues and shadows of the darkest currents swirling through modern life. Drawing upon over thirty years in federal and state law enforcement as well as the history of ancient transgressions and reprisals, Larry Bergsgaard takes us into lives and dramas we suspect are there, but rarely glimpse until they have become the news stories of our day. In the best tradition of Sjöwall and Wahlöö, Bergsgaard offers us not only very real and engaging characters, but very insightful and current commentary on political and social conflicts we ignore at our own peril. For any reader concerned that all of the great crime procedurals have been written, a welcome surprise awaits you in the opening pages of Next Year in Jerusalem.
