“Fast-paced and strikingly authentic”—Stella Rimington, former Director-General of MI5
“As sharp as Frederick Forsyth—as exotic as Wilbur Smith.”—Jason Goodwin, author of "The Janissary Tree"
“A travel writer with firsthand knowledge of the area, Elliot effectively combines action and landscape ... The Afghan setting is vividly rendered ... For those wanting a realistic look behind the news ... Elliot delivers the goods.”"—"Jeff Ayers, "Booklist"
“Elliot’s descriptions of Afghanistan and its extraordinary people are so vivid, evocative, and hauntingly real that I found myself reaching for my old camel-hair pakol and 9mm Makarov. His portrayal of the intelligence community’s tactics, techniques, and procedures are so spot-on accurate that one wonders whether travel writer was merely his cover.”—Matthew Bogdanos, Colonel, U.S. Marine Corps and author of "Thieves of Baghdad"""

In this bold novel, Jason Elliot illuminates the dark recesses of the intelligence community during a crucial moment in history: the struggle to avoid a terrorist attack. Based on real characters and drawing on the author's extensive firsthand knowledge of Afghanistan, the novel follows ex-army officer Anthony Taverner, recruited by the British Intelligence Service to help destroy a cache of American Stinger missiles loose in Afghanistan-before they fall into al-Qaeda's hands. This is a thriller of rare authenticity, providing sustained insight into influences surrounding 9/11 and raising questions about the role of intelligence agencies in historical events deliberately hidden from the public eye.
