A provocative political thriller, compared to Le Carré. An ex Special Forces operative turns to his former training in counter-terrorism and psychological warfare after being kidnapped, falsely accused of terrorism and 'disappeared' to a secret CIA 'black site'. Can he really turn the table on his captors? And why was he singled out in the first place?Superbly written, riveting, thought provoking, can’t-put-the-book-down reading.If you like thrillers with a difference, ones that make you think long and hard about the modern world, An Unquiet American is well worth reading.A well written book by an author who doesn't live in the world with closed eyes.Rufus Reed, ex-British Special Forces and successful author now living in the United States is drugged, kidnapped, falsely accused of terrorism and “disappeared” to a secret CIA “Black Site”. He’s to be broken “by any means possible”. But nothing is quite what it seems, and Reed is no ordinary prisoner. Subjected to increasingly harsh treatment he uses all his former training in counterterrorism and psychological warfare to play a dangerous 'cat-and-mouse' game with his captors. As some of them develop a growing respect for Reed, doubts about his guilt grow as does the horror at the possibility they may all be pawns in a larger more insidious game. A game that makes not just Reed, but all of them expendable! But could “their own” really betray them? As they grapple with the unthinkable, the moves and countermoves of competing forces explode onto the world stage. From a small Irish village to the Port of Al-Aqabah, the White House to the Israeli Knesset, the CIA Black Site to top echelons of the Vatican, events escalate at an unnerving pace until a mind-bending twist propels the action to a dramatic and unexpected conclusion.Drawing on the author’s own experiences in the military and as the son of a British MI6 operative living in different countries, cultures and political systems around the world, this “controversial”, “politically provocative”, “can't put the book down” novel tackles highly controversial issues and disturbing decisions in history from 1948 to the present, the far reaching consequences of which we are still dealing with today.
