Twenty years after he declined an invitation to join the CIA, Air Force Colonel Paul Cameron finds he’s a part of the secret Phoenix Group and takes on an innocent-sounding CIA mission to help an old friend. Al-Qaeda hunts the pair from Europe to the Middle East, Cameron must rely on his wits to survive relentless attacks designed to silence his Saudi friend and preserve a plan to attack America. 

If you are spy movies, then this book is made for you. Set in the post 9/11 era, a new prototype agency set up to protect America and Americans clashing with enemies of the state all over the world, a Saudi General nephew who knows too much and a smart and skilled US Airforce Colonel turn spy who needs to find out the enemy's plan, and we have a suspense filled Thriller. The author displayed a great knowledge of middle eastern culture which sometimes felt like overkill and he also made considerable effort to differentiate between good Muslims and bad ones. You will definitely enjoy this one and crave for more. 

Rating: 8/10
