The Fourth Assassin by Matt Rees
When Omar Yussef travels to New York for a UN conference, he is eager to see his youngest son, Ala. But the discovery of a decapitated corpse in his son's empty apartment catapults him into a police enquiry full of contradictions. In his desperation to clear Ala's name, Omar's investigations place him at the heart of a deadly international conspiracy.
'Morse, Rebus, and now Yussef' Observer 'Omar Yussef is a splendid creation' Colin Dexter 'The next big sleuth in crime fiction' Donal Macintyre 'These gripping thrillers by a British journalist are excellent - not least because they are based on real events' Independent 'Indispensable.. Rees not only provides a classic investigation into a terrible crime, he paints a picture of life in this hell-hole... First-rate crime.' Scotsman (The Samaritan's Secret) 'Ree's captures the touching undercurrent of existence in the direst circumstances... This is a rare crime novel.' TLS (The Samaritan's Secret)
