I recently presented and co-wrote Jaffa Stories, a documentary for the BBC. It's based on my book City of Oranges, and features several of the people who appear in it. My essay on Tel Aviv at 100 is published this month in the US edition of Conde Nast Traveler magazine.

My latest non-fiction work is an exposé of the United Nations' failure to confront genocide. Complicity With Evil, published in the UK and US by Yale University Press, investigates the UN's actions in Rwanda, Srebrenica and Darfur, and focuses on the role of UN officials. Complicity with Evil was selected as an "outstanding" title by the American Association of University Presses.

City of Oranges, my book about Israel and Palestine, tells the true story of six families in Jaffa, three Jewish and three Arab. It has been critically acclaimed by The Times, The Guardian, the Jerusalem Post and Ash-Sharq Al-Awsat among others, and was shortlisted for the 2007 Jewish Quarterly Wingate Prize. The US edition, published by WW Norton in May 2007, was an Editor's Choice in the New York Times.

My other books include A Heart Turned East, a journey among Muslim minorities in the West; a critically acclaimed biography of Slobodan Milosevic, and the best-selling Hitler's Secret Bankers, which was published in seven languages and short-listed for the Orwell Prize.
