Book Description
Harry Hanan, self-assured CIA Chief of Station, Ankara, is dying from terminal cancer. But Harry will not be allowed to die in peace. The Thirteen Men have been marked for death by a self-appointed goel hadam, the Biblical "avenger of the Blood" authorized by ancient law to kill for private revenge. And Harry Hanan is to be the thirteenth victim. In this quest for his own murderer, Hanan joins a clandestine international quartet on the trail of a goel hadam: Sam Urdell, the feisty old-timer who came out of retirement to search for the avenger; Peter Vogelsang, the rich as man whose modern research techniques proved useless in the hunt; Elly Bircha, the beautiful Swiss translator whose cloudy past did not stop each man from seeing her in his future and Schorsh, the theology professor who guided them through arcane Biblical and Talmudic scholarship.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Thirteenth Man A strange, mournful song broke the stillness Of a hot July afternoon, and caused two pedestrians to come to a halt in a lane on which dust lay thick. On either side were high banks, surmounted by unclipped hedges. One of the pedestrians, a young and athletic man, had climbed the bank nearer to him in a second, and was peering through a gap in the hedge, where nothing met his gaze but miles Of smiling country, dotted by farms at long intervals, a bungalow covered with rambler roses, and a white house on the border of a wood.

The Thirteenth Man
Author: J.L. Doty
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062562088
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
From the author of The Treasons Cycle, The Gods Within, and The Dead Among Us series comes a stand-alone science fiction novel for fans of David Weber, Pierce Brown, Lois McMaster Bujold, and more! Spanning the galaxy, The Thirteenth Man blends the best traditions of space opera and military sci-fi into a non-stop adventure that’s as much Patrick O’Brien as it is John Scalzi. When Commander Charlie Cass, the bastard son of the Duke de Maris, returns from five years in a squalid Syndonese POW camp, he finds that little has changed in the Realm. As always, the King and the nine Dukes are conspiring against each other, but now some of them are plotting with Charlie’s old enemy. And as interstellar war looms, they certainly don’t need Charlie Cass messing up their delicate plans. Unfortunately for them, that’s what he’s best at. With ingenuity, tacticial inovations, and just a little bit of luck, Cass might be able to not only save the Realm, but perhaps even change it for the better. Which, of course, means he’ll likely face the headsman’s axe.
