Publisher Description
Patricia Foley, anti-semite, homophobe, and previously one of the CIA's rising stars, has been exiled to the basement for the past ten years. Chase Anderson, chief of the Near East Division and Pat's former mentor, feels partially responsible for her fall from grace. So he offers her a simple hand-holding exercise, but Pat has plans of her own. And figuring into those plans, Danny Golan, Israeli master spy, Pat's former lover, and the principal cause of her misfortunes.
Then 9/11 happens.
"Most impressive is how real and distinct each of the many characters feels, especially with so few words afforded them. Readers might struggle early on with the multitude of characters and their overt and covert motivations, but as Hassan layers the meaning of the novel's title, readers who endure won't be disappointed. A fast, brutal thriller about manipulation, drugs and terrorism." - Kirkus Reviews
