A journalist is murdered in Jerusalem¿s Armenian Cathedral and Detective Arieh Ben-Roi is spoilt for leads.

Baffled, Ben-Roi turns for help to his old friend and sparring partner, Inspector Yusuf Khalifa of the Luxor Police.Although struggling with personal tragedy and immersed in a case of his own - mysterious well poisonings in the Eastern Desert - Khalifa agrees to do some digging. What he discovers will change both men¿s lives for ever.

Rezension zu „The Labyrinth of Osiris “
"Sussman knew how to keep a complex plot bowling along while constantly ratcheting up the tension...this is top-drawer popular fiction and is sure to become an even bigger bestseller than his three other novels." -- John Preston MAIL ON SUNDAY "An absolutely top-notch thriller - captivating, intelligent and notably well-written, with a depth of characterisation most thrillers don't usually even attempt... his plotting is terrific...Sussman's thrillers have been translated into 33 languages and have sold over 2 million copies worldwide. This, his final book, deserves to be even more successful." -- Harry Ritchie DAILY MAIL "Stylish writing and deep research." Guardian "A genuinely exciting read from a world-class storyteller...a beautifully-observed thriller" -- Christopher Fowler FINANCIAL TIMES
