BookLender review by Kathleen on 2009-08-17 23:41:34

With the exception of one episode, this book will keep you up at night thinking this could really happen...and is!. The description of fundamentalist indoctrination brings the reality of the need for secular education front and center in a chilling manner. Forsyth is still the master if international intrigue.
