Sometimes you can tell more truth through fiction. In the near future America is on the brink of war with Iran and the Secretary of Defense is scheming to make sure the conflict starts. The U.S. does not understand what is going on in Saudi Arabia, where a revolution has replaced the Saud family government. But is the new regime one we can work with, or is it another hostile power? A British spy, an American intelligence officer, a reporter, and a doubting Marine all have pieces of the puzzle. If they can get together and understand the total picture of what is about to happen, they might be able to prevent a disaster bigger than the U.S. invasion of Iraq. This thriller provides a look behind the curtain at what motivates some who want change in the rapidly evolving Arabian Gulf region and how America interacts so poorly with this key part of the world.
