Ari Ben-Sion is a
spy who has undergone a number of missions. Now feeling older and
that he is been passed over missions to younger agents and sensing
his last mission did not go all that well. In a last attempt to try
and save his career he decides to accept a mission he would never
usually even consider. The mission is to smuggle a group of Jewish
children out of the Damascus ghetto. But all is not what it seems,
when things start to go wrong and things do not fall into place. Then
when he begins to fall for an American photographer, Ari's world is
about to spin out of control putting everything at risk including his
life.
One of the things I
really enjoy about reviewing books is that sometimes it allows you to
step away from your comfort reading zone and to be able to read books
you would never usually have ever considered reading and I would have
missed out on so many good reads like this one. This spy, suspense
novel really surprised me. I was afraid I may find it too complicated
and that it would not hold my interest, however from page one I was
gripped and pulled into the intense storyline and I could not put the
book down. I am left wanting to read more and to find out what
happens next. This great story is been made into a major motion
picture and I cannot wait to see it on the big screen.
