Written before 9/11, this novel is about a fictional terrorist attack on Washington DC where the terrorist mastermind, Abu Hasim through his cell leader Mohamed Rashid threaten the US government with a VX based nerve gas. The blackmail being they must arrange the release of numerous Islamic fundamentalist prisoners and withdraw the US military from the Middle East within the week or Washington DC becomes a graveyard.
Despite it being a bit of a longer novel at 742 pages it certainly doesn't drag things out as some books do, everything felt like it had a purpose and the pace was well formed slowly building to the climax at the end of the book. There's a few sub plots that keep your interest as the main plot line builds and everything show more threads together nicely.
I enjoyed this much more than the other Glenn Meade book I previously read, Snow Wolf. show less
