I read Dan Fesperman’s stand-alone novel, “Layover in Dubai”, (LD) for three reasons – I had just read some very favorable comments about Dan while scanning a review of another author’s work, the Amazon readers’ reviews were well over a 4.0, and I wanted to learn more about Dubai. In my occasional flights to and fro India, I often have a brief layover in Dubai, Doha and other exotic places, but have never ventured beyond the airports. After reading this book I’m thinking “good decision”.There is plenty of local flavor in LD; it’s clear the author speaks from personal experiences and observations. There is a lot about the incredible wealth, the towering office buildings, the extravagant malls. But there is also a good deal about local customs, and not only women’s rights in public, but at home as well. Dan also touches on the very stunning demographics of the Dubai residents, including the native birth of clusters of its police force. And the incredible wealth, and the incredible cars, speeds, crashes, jams. And then there’s the seamier side as well, human trafficking for example., a key plot point of LD.Our hero, Sam Keller, is a bit of a rising star at his NYC-based pharmaceutical corporation. He is tasked with accompanying one of the company’s more senior reps on a trip to the Middle East, in large part to keep the gentleman from misbehaving; it is to be a quick trip, a layover of sorts. But Sam is in Dubai for only hours before being pursued by police Lt. Assad for the murder of his companion. Sam is rescued, temporarily by Sharaf, another police officer and opponent of Assad. Sharaf puts Sam up at his home for one night where Sam gets a taste of Dubai home life, but not of Sharaf’s stunningly attractive and capable 25 year old daughter. And he crosses paths with Mama, Amina.The story is well written, fast-paced, well plotted, and has interesting characters; it gave me everything in the way of local color that I was hoping for. It includes a fight to the death atop a tower under construction on the edge of an elevator shaft. And a very good climax and good ending. I will read more of Dan’s works, and will get “The Letter Writer” in the near future, and likely “Safe Houses” and “The Arms Maker of Berlin” afterwords. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dan Fesperman is a first class writer whose thrillers are truly thrilling *by M***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 28, 2021* Layover in Dubai is my second Dan Fesperman thriller. Each had me up way past my bedtime because it was impossible to get to sleep without finishing them first.As someone who has been working in the UAE for more than fifteen years, I can attest to the veracity of all the local nuances contained in this novel. That's why I live in Abu Dhabi 😀. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Not up to his standard *by A***B on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 4, 2021* Fesperman falters here with overblown violence and thin corporate intrigue. More a disappointment than a failure considering his usual terrific work. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/61528700-layover-in-dubai-a-novel](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/61528700-layover-in-dubai-a-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
