Booklist (starred review), The Faithful Spy

August 28, 2012 by Alex Berenson Leave a Comment

Published: January 28, 2008

“Berenson works against the inherent sensationalism of his story with a diversity of viewpoints and deft character sketches that avoid oversimplifying the complex beliefs and strategies of his combatants… The plotting is superlative, baffling readers and characters alike as the mastermind behind al-Qaeda´s sleeper network wages covert war against a vigilant and resourceful enemy. As with Thomas Harris´ Black Sunday (1975) or Joseph Finder´s Zero Hour (1996), one could hardly ask for a more skillful, timely, and well-rounded translation of our worst fears into satisfying thrills; a sure bet for fans of Jack Higgins and Vince Flynn.”
