Publisher Description
On April 29, 1992, three shots are fired from a long-range sniper’s rifle, and Hussein and two other men are killed. When the American Defense Intelligence Agency discovers the plot and puzzles out each element—who recruited the assassination team, how they managed to get into Iraq, how they succeeded in penetrating the defenses of the most challenging target in the world—the story emerges, step by stealthy step.
A technically expert masterpiece of suspense and ingenuity, and with a certain added intrigue given the news today, Shadow Over Babylon builds to a moment of truth so tense and real that you’ll have to remind yourself it didn’t happen.

"I have read this book twice (once I read a book, generally I can reread it again after 2/3 years). Although events have made the main target in the book irrelevant, it is still a damn fine read. Good plot, character build-up and a great yarn that kept me interested right through."
— Dave (5 out of 5 stars)
