Description
The explosive memoir of a Muslim American FBI agent fighting terror from the inside.
It's no secret that federal agencies are waging a broad global war against terror. But, for the first time, in this memoir, an active Muslim American federal agent reveals his experience infiltrating and bringing down a terror cell in North America.
A longtime undercover agent, Tamer Elnoury joined an elite counterterrorism unit after September 11. Its express purpose is to gain the trust of terrorists whose goals are to take out as many Americans in as public and as devastating a way possible. It's a furious race against the clock for Tamer and his unit to stop them before they can implement their plans. Yet, as new as this war still is, the techniques are as old as time - listen, record, and prove terrorist intent.
Due to his ongoing work for the FBI, Elnoury writes under a pseudonym. An Arabic-speaking Muslim American, a patriot, a hero: To many Americans, it will be a revelation that he and his team even exist, let alone the vital and dangerous work they do keeping all Americans safe.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"[A] multifaceted, action-packed account of real-life spycraft...Elnoury heightens the suspense in vividly described scenes...and provides insight into the worldview and intentions of al-Qaeda affiliates. There is never a dull moment in this intimate story of an American Muslim going to great lengths to serve and protect his country." (Publishers Weekly)
"The author reflects compellingly on the challenges of being a Muslim patriot, and he closes with a plea to resist wholesale bigotry: ‘Banning Muslims from the United States throws gas on the myth that the United States is at war with Islam.’ His tale of infiltration is exciting and clearly written.... A worthwhile, unique addition to the shelf of post-9/11 memoirs concerning the fight against terrorism." (Kirkus Reviews)
"The first time an active FBI agent has published a book remotely like it." (The Times, UK)

Unforgettable
Astounding that this is a true story. This was one that kept me up at night, trying in vain to imagine how agent Tamer could have possibly kept his cover through everything.

More Books On Terrorism Please!
ok book. A bit disappointing given the hype around the book. I've read better real life accounts of al aqaeda and isis. i'd say this book is average on the subject.
