One of the very best thrillers of the last twenty years. Second novel by Stevens, now published as an ebook and still stunningly relevant to the Middle East conflict.
The lives of three families converge: a Jewish family finally allowed out of Russia after years of persecution; a Palestinian family displaced by the Israelis from their ancestral home in Bethlehem; an English family from Hereford, home of the SAS: hostage, highjacker, rescuer – but who is really the villain, who is really the victim? A super novel of international intrigue and heartbreaking suspense.
Gordon Stevens was an investigative journalist and a television producer and director. He is the author of seven novels including the bestselling ‘‘Provo’ and ‘‘Kennedy’s Ghost’ and ‘‘Kara’s Game’. He lives with his family in the New Forest.
Kara’s Game
‘Stevens has written a cracking thriller with all the pace and tension and authenticity of The Day of the Jackal, but he has also written a book which confronts the reader with the appalling moral dilemmas that still pervade the processes of prosecuting for peace in
“former Yugoslavia”’
