The Heat of Ramadan is Hartov’s first espionage novel and the opening salvo of a trilogy still in high demand today. Hailed as “a smashing debut” by Publishers Weekly, it introduces Israeli Military Intelligence officers Eytan Ecktsein and Benjamin Baum, in pursuit of the master terrorist Amar Kamil. Beginning with Eckstein’s tragic assassination of the wrong man in Munich, the story races across the Continent as Kamil in turn hunts down every member of the Israeli team, finally culminating in a face-to-face struggle in Jerusalem. Best Selling author Jonathan Kellerman said: “This is no techno-thriller concocted by some armchair generalissimo. This is the real stuff.”


The Heat of Ramadan Reviews


  • Grada (BoekenTrol)

    An interesting book.
    Just a good thriller / action good book to read, but certainly interesting because of the background.
    Seen from an Israeli / Arab position, which is not very common. And, for those interested it gives a glimpse behind the scenes of espionage, training, ranks and relations within and between the different services.

    Read it with pleasure :-)

  • Joumana

    It takes time to fully appreciate the intrigue but when I got to page 100, I was hooked. It is really interesting to read about Israeli secret services methods and secret wars.
