He came to Israel a stranger, but would soon join the Mossad in its fight against terror—in this “insider’s wrenching insight into a very private club” (Jewish Book World).
When Canadian army veteran Michael Ross decided to go backpacking across Europe, he had no inkling that his vacation would lead to a life tracking down the world’s most dangerous terrorists.
Out of money and alone in Israel, Ross began working on a Kibbutz—and fell in love with both the country and an Israeli woman. After converting to Judaism, Ross was recruited by the country’s secret service—the Mossad—as an undercover agent.
In the years that followed, he played a significant role in capturing al-Qaeda members responsible for the embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania, and worked jointly with the FBI and CIA to uncover a senior Hezbollah terrorist living in the United States. He saved countless lives and brought justice to the terrorists.
With an “engaging” tone and an insider’s view of Israeli covert operations, Ross offers a rare glimpse into one of the most respected and feared intelligence organizations in the world (Publishers Weekly).
