Customer Reviews

Another great Avram Cohen story

I have to admit I'm an Avram Cohen fan. And House of Guilt is great because while it's fictionm it's really about what's relly going on in Israel. Highly recommended!

Incisive, timely and smart

Well written, hugely timely, and a real page turner, House of Guilt is about Israel between the Hebron Massacre and Rabin's assassination. A story that takes the reader from the seediest sides of Tel Aviv night life to the strange minds of the fanatic settler movement, and all through the journey, Avram Cohen, the author's detective over four books, gives the reader an insider's view of what makes Israel tick. This book is a must read not only for mystery lovers -- and there's a geat mystery in it -- but for anyone who wants to understand what's going on in Israel.
