Mystery Midrash: An Anthology of Jewish Mystery & Detective Fiction

From a corporate giant's kidnapping of a rabbi, to the disappearance of the clarinetist in a klezmer band, to four rabbis' use of their text interpretation skills to help a detective solve a murder that one of them has committed, the unique collection of mysteries will enlighten you at the same time it intrigues and entertains. While featuring enough death and deception to keep the detective protagonists on their toes, each story presents the uncertainties that are a part of contemporary Jewish identity- inviting us all to confront our own mysteries of being. Mystery Midrash will be a lasting delight for mystery buffs of all faith traditions.
