Murder Duet by Batya Gur
With tension as taut as strings on a cello, the fourth Michael Ohayon mystery from "Israel's Agatha Christie," in which the police officer must solve the murder of two musicians, is "pure reading pleasure" (New York Times).
After his cellist friend's father and brother--who are also well-known musicians--are brutally murdered, Chief Superintendent Michael Ohayon, a classical music afficionado, sets out to solve the crime. From the opening pages, where the detective plays a compact disc of Brahm's First Symphony, to the newly discovered music for an unknown Vivaldi requiem that provides a rock-solid motive for the crime, lovers of crime novels, as well as music, will thrill to every dulcet note.
Batya Gur (1947-2005) worked as a literary critic for Haaretz, Israel's most prominent newspaper, in Jerusalem. She received her master's degree in Hebrew literature from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and she also spent over two decades teaching literature.
