Rosenberg</a><br/>
My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/3915153177">3 of 5 stars</a><br /><br />
Rosenberg writes from a deep knowledge of the cultures and networks of people in the Middle East. His details of contacts and how they are used gives depth to the story. However, I didn't get to appreciating the story line until page 200 of almost 600 where he gets to the meat of the matter. The intensity magnifies, the tension rises, and the struggle builds well after that.
