True story of the Ross Peroit efforts to rescue his Iranian employee after the embassy take over in the late 70s. ( )

An interesting tale presented in Follet's own style of absolute pace and thrill. Most interesting fact about this book is all the characters in this book are for real. ( )

When some of the employees of the large company that made Perot lots of money get into serious trouble he doesn't get much joy from official channels.

Therefore, he decides to put together his own official rescue insertion and retrieval operation to get his people out.

An interesting tale, indeed, alongside Follet' other fictional works.
