Exile is a political thriller by Richard North Patterson, published in 2007, which engages the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through a fictional trial for an accused Palestinian political assassin being defended by her former lover, a Jewish-American lawyer. The novel explores the multitude of religious, social and historical factors that have created the volatile nature of the Israel / Palestine situation. The reader may be surprised to feel deep sympathy with characters one might have first dismissed as simply fanatic. In a very good way, it's hard to tell where Patterson's sympathies lie.
