On September 11, 2001, FBI Special Agent Ali H. Soufan was
handed a secret file. Had he received it months earlier—when
it was requested—the attacks on New York and Washington
could have been prevented. During his time on the front
lines, Soufan helped thwart plots around the world and
elicited some of the most important confessions from
terrorists in the war against al-Qaeda—without laying so
much as a hand on them. Most of these stories have never
been reported before, and never by anyone with such intimate
firsthand knowledge. This narrative account of America's successes and failures
against al-Qaeda is essential to an understanding of the
terrorist group. We are taken into hideouts and
interrogation rooms. We have a ringside seat at bin Laden's
personal celebration of the 9/11 bombings. Such riveting
details show us not only how terrorists think and operate
but also how they can be beaten and brought to justice.
