A diamond dealer and his entire family have mysteriously disappeared from their sprawling Las Angeles manor, leaving the estate undisturbed and their valuables untouched. Investigating detective Decker is stumped - faced with a perplexing case riddled with dead ends. Then a second dealer is found murdered in Manhatten, catapulting Decker and his wife, Rina, into a heartstopping maze of murder and intrigue that spans the globe... only to touch down dangerously in their own backyard.

What did you love best about Sanctuary?

My first Faye Kellerman book & I bought it on a $5 sale solely on the recommendations of other readers. I'm glad I did. It was a well structured, clean, and educational plot. The Deckers lead me through the twists & turns of a police detective story on two continents.

What did you like best about this story?

The glimpse of the Jewish household and viewpoints of the characters leading to the resolution of the mystery.

What about Mitchell Greenberg’s performance did you like?

The voices of the different characters were well done and the story was well served by the narrator. I believed the characters.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I wanted to continue listening. Yes,yes,yes.

Excellent story & glimpse into a Jewish household.

Mitch Greenberg has become a true favorite of this afficianado. Many readers/actors have entertained, and Mr Greenberg hovers about very pinnacle. He is a master of all aspects of his craft.
After a couple of not-so-well-enjoyed stories, Dr Kellerman re-acquaints us with her excellence.
One recommendation: Peter, Rina, and Marge need not be perfect, or prescient, in solving every single aspect of the case.

I really wanted to love this but I can't get past a like. It wasn't horrible and I finished it, but the female voices of the narrator were cringe. Otherwise mostly okay.

Good story meh narrator

The incredibly powerful ending that completed the intricate web of a fascinating trade and the powers that rule it—the diamond trade

What more can I say other than: it was great!

The more I move along the series, the more I just love it! I’m diving into Book 8 right away.

Thank you Faye Kellerman for providing me with a terrific go-to series!

I was very disappointing in book 6, so what a joy to return to the series and find that book 7 returns to form. Ms Kellerman's series is entertaining and educational. I continue to love the glimpses into the world of Orthodoxy. And now I also got to learn more about the diamond industry. This has been my favorite aspect of the Decker/Lazarus series.

I will say that if you want a gripping, suspenseful, hard-hitting mystery -- this series will likely disappoint. But if you like character driven stories Ms Kellerman's books are a great choice.

I'm not a big fan of the more recent Faye Kellerman books, but this older one has everything you loved in her Peter Decker series -- a whopping good mystery, tidbits of the personal life of Peter and Rina, police lore, plus the fact that Faye Kellerman writes the best dinner-table conversations of any author out there. A couple of dinner scenes in this one made me laugh out loud -- its so darn accurate you can hear it coming out of the mouths of your own family.

Something else I found spellbinding -- this book came out in 1995, and without offering a spoiler, suffice it to say that the plot involves a business trip to Israel for both Rina and Peter. In 1995, I was living in California, so back when I read this book, most of the nuances of their time in Israel probably went right past me. Now I've been living in Israel for ten years, and found Kellerman's storytelling absolutely fascinating. Israel has changed quite a bit since then, but many things remain exactly the same. When Rina finds herself driving to Hebron, all by herself, I literally cringed -- are you kidding? She's crazy! Only to find that a few minutes later, Rina is being soundly chastised by a police officer using virtually the same words I'd have used in telling her off. Kellerman's account of the streets of Israel, some of the people she writes about, are extremely accurate, even today. It was fun to see someone writing about Israel who obviously knew what they were talking about.

Huge credit in this one goes to the narrator, Mitchell Greenberg. He had to master a plethora of languages and accents, everything from Brooklynese to Yeshivish to Hebrew -- broken and fluent -- not to mention Southern California plus the southern drawl of Marge. Very impressive, how he could switch so easily from an aged Ashkenazi rosh yeshiva in Israel to a Sephardic police captain, then to the stumbling attempts at Hebrew by Peter Decker himself. Well done!

True, this book had an unusual number of highly improbable events -- amazing deductions, based on almost nothing, that not only turn out to be true, but were also provable on the first try. That's okay -- this is fiction. Leaps of faith are acceptable.

Darn good book. The best of the series, by any standard.
