Style and the Solitary - Miriam Drori
An unexpected murder. A suspect with a motive. The power of unwavering belief.
A murder has been committed in an office in Jerusalem. Asaf, who works there, is the suspect. But is the case as clear-cut as it seems?
Asaf is locked in a cell and in his own protective wall, unable to tell his story even to himself. How can he tell it to a chief inspector or a judge? The fear would paralyse him.
His colleague, Nathalie, has studied Beauty and the Beast. She understands that staunch belief can effect change. As the only one who believes in Asaf's innocence, she's motivated to act on his behalf. But she's new in the company - and in the country. Who will take her seriously?
She cajoles her two flatmates into helping her investigate. As they uncover new trails, will they be able to change people's minds about Asaf?
Will Nathalie's belief in Asaf impel him to defeat his own demons and clear his name?
***
Not so much a whodunnit as a howdunnit and a whydunnit.
