  • "A burned-out L.A. detective ... a woman of mystery who is far more than she seems ... a grotesque, ancient monster bent on a mission of retribution. When these three collide, a new standard of suspense is born. The legend of the Golem of Prague has endured through the ages, a creature fashioned by a 16th-century rabbi to protect his congregation, now lying dormant in the garret of a synagogue. But the Golem is dormant no longer. And for Detective Jacob Lev the mystery of how he spent last night pales in comparison to the one he's about to be called upon to solve."

  • ""An extraordinary work of detection, suspense, and supernatural mystery. I spent three days totally lost in the world Jonathan and Jesse Kellerman have created. This is brilliant, page-turning fiction with mythic underpinnings that give it a special resonance; a rare collaboration where the sum is truly greater than the parts. The book is like nothing I've ever read before. It sort of took my breath away."--Stephen King -- justice Detective Lev is about to embark on an odyssey--through Los Angeles, through many parts of the United States, through London and Prague, but most of all, through himself. All that he has believed to be true will be upended--and not only his world, but the world itself, will be changed."@en
  • ""Detective Jacob Lev has awakened dazed and confused. It appears he picked up a woman the night before, but can't remember anything about it. And then suddenly, she's gone. Not long after, he's dispatched to a murder scene at a house in the Hollywood Hills. There is no body, only a head. And seared into a kitchen counter is a message: the Hebrew word for "justice." Lev is about to embark on an odyssey--through Los Angeles, London, and Prague; through the labyrinthine mysteries of a grotesque ancient legend; and most of all, through himself.
