Monday the Rabbi Took Off

by Harry Kemelman Narrated by George Guidall

Overview

Popular author Harry Kemelman combines baffling crimes, fascinating characters, and rich Jewish tradition to create his best-selling mystery series. In Monday the Rabbi Took Off, an exhausted Rabbi David Small searches for relaxation in Israel, only to find himself in the midst of an explosive international incident. After six years of leading a challenging congregation, Rabbi Small is taking his dream vacation: three months in Jerusalem without any rabbinical duties. He is finally getting the rest he needs-until a new acquaintance is found dead after a bombing. Suddenly the savvy young Rabbi is up against the formidable Israeli intelligence and faceless Arab terrorists with murder on their minds. With Harry Kemelman's dramatic flair, you will feel as if you are walking the colorful streets of Jerusalem alongside the perceptive Rabbi Small. George Guidall-personally approved for this unabridged recording by the author's estate-skillfully breathes life into the ordinary people caught in extraordinary situations.

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal

Here are three more installations in the wonderful Rabbi Small mystery series. In Saturday (1966), Small finds himself comforting the widow of a man who apparently committed suicide. Yet once the rabbi begins to look at the facts, he's not so sure the police have drawn the right conclusion. In Sunday (1969), Small again comes to the aid of his congregation when murder unfolds. On Monday (1972), Small takes a trip to Israel, but no matter where he goes, the rabbi seems to land himself in a kosher pickle. The mysteries are always laced with Talmudic law and numerous subplots that connect up at the end. Terrific. Copyright 2003 Cahners Business Information.
