This translation from Hebrew of the Israeli author's whodunit I found both intellectually stimulating and thoroughly enjoyable. The story is set in Jerusalem and the action takes place following the murder of a leading member of the staff of a psychiatric institute. Well-written, believable characters and entertaining dialogue as the story proceeds. Particularly interesting about the training of psychoanalysts and the ethics and rules of their profession.
