Synopsis

When Orna meets Gil on an online dating site, their lackluster affair seems like nothing more than a way to stave off the pain of her recent divorce. But soon it becomes clear that Gil may not be exactly who he claims to be and that Ornas own lies may be weaving an unexpected trap for her.Set against the turbulent backdrop of the gritty Holon neighborhood in Tel Aviv, this enigmatic and intelligent novel is, in fact, an intricate puzzle. Mishanis first standalone book explores Israels forgotten margins, unearthing complicated layers, conflicts, and prejudices. At turns shocking, deceptive, and subversive, Three is a slow-burning psychological thriller from one of Israels most beloved writers.
