Based on actual events, The Red Balcony is a gripping novel of sex, love and justice, in the tinderbox of British Mandatory Palestine

Jonathan Wilson

The Red Balcony has been called extraordinary. A character driven, flat-out page-turner and a work of meticulously investigated historical fiction, brimming with intrigue and atmosphere.

Jonathan Wilson dazzles in the subtleties of warring agendas among the Jews, Arabs and British. Illuminating life in Palestine under the British Mandate, the reader is engrossed in a legal drama, mixing intrigue, romance and 1930's realpolitik.

Ivor Castle, arrives in 1933 Palestine, to take up the position of assistant defense counsel, in the trial of two men accused of a leader of the Jewish community's murder. Ivor learns the hard way about the violence simmering just beneath the surface of British colonial rule and must discover where his heart lies.

Jonathan Wilson is the author of eight books, two short story collections and a soccer memoir. He was a finalist of the Jewish Quarterly-Wingate Prize for The Hiding Room and a

National Jewish Book Award finalist for A Palestine Affair.
