About the Novel
Large crowds, public places – some people are in extreme danger; everyone else is perfectly safe
It is June 1992. A senior Mossad official is defecting to the United States with information on an Israeli intelligence source who has worked in the U.S. intelligence community. Evidence of the existence of this source came to the attention of U.S. officials during the controversy over a major spy scandal of the 1980s in which a civilian intelligence analyst was caught providing classified information to Israel. The source referred to as X was never identified. The defecting Mossad executive will finally close this gap.
Unknown to the Americans, the Israeli government accidentally learns of this plan on the very morning that the defection is to take place. In response, Mossad quickly assigns a team of agents to resolve the defection and keep it out of the public eye. Incorrect assumptions are made, confrontations are poorly analyzed, and mistakes lead to the wrong set of actions which place innocent lives in danger.
A poorly organized police action leads to a violent confrontation on a passenger jet over the Mediterranean; a team of Mossad agents use a masterful scheme of deceit to force the hand of a CIA intelligence officer at Cointrin Airport in Geneva; a husband and wife barely escape with their lives in Paris; and CIA security staff live through eight minutes of terror as they try to disarm a bomb at CIA headquarters at Langley, Virginia.
The wife of a CIA intelligence officer and a young female U.S. Air Force co-pilot of a C-141 Starlifter save the day.
A surprise ending still does not answer every question.
