Summary

Europe, 2033.
 
The Wall is up.
 
It protects the continent's southern and eastern borders against millions of migrants.
 
It is six metres high. Watchtowers, machine guns, snipers. Fire order in force. Thousands die every year trying to cross The Wall.
 
Europe had to choose between its old values and security.
 
Europe chose security.
 
Europe closed its doors.
 
In this world Zsuzsa Radnai, an agent of the European Immigration Office, is trying to protect what is really important to her. Like the others: the young teacher at the University of Pest, the American investigative journalist, and the Muslim terrorist.
 
Europe or Eurabia?
 
Freedom or security?
 
Laszlo Reti tackles the issues that are increasingly defining our daily lives and our future.
 
The first edition of the novel was published in 2o15, the first year of the migrant crisis, under the title Behind the Walls. Since then, many of the events predicted in the novel have already happened.

Available since: 06/03/2024.

The victim is the entracing Hailey Prouix, a woman with numerous charms who had mesmerized Victor—and every other man she ever met. 
Though Victor is convinced Guy is guilty, he agrees to represent him, silently vowing to see justice done. To build his case, the determined attorney embarks on a quest that will take him cross-country and back—and lead him to the horrifying discovery that nothing is as simple as it seems. Now time is running out and all too soon the wheels of justice Guy set into motion will fall with unmerciful force on his own head.

“An excellent read….Concrete evidence of a master crime writer still at the top of his game.”—Russel D. McLean, author of The Good Son“The reigning King Daddy of crime writers” (Seattle Times), Elmore Leonard first introduced quick-triggered legendary lawman Carl Webster  in the New York Times bestseller, The Hot Kid, and brought him back for an encore Up in Honey’s Room. In Comfort to the Enemy and Other Carl Webster Stories, the loose cannon U.S. marshal struts his stuff once more in three electrifying new tales. Comfort to the Enemy is more indisputable proof that Elmore Leonard is indeed, as Dennis Lehane (Mystic River, Shutter Island) puts it, “The greatest crime writer who ever lived.”
