Publisher's Synopsis
Mossad, the national intelligence agency of the State of Israel, also known as the Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations, came across a surprising piece of news. Somehow, the Afghanistan-based Taliban had reportedly struck an alliance with the Muslim Brotherhood, an extremist Islamist organization based in Egypt. With a first bombing having proven successful,
Mossad, working through The Shadow Experts, the group founded by Countess Renate, warned the Mukhabarat, the Egyptian Secret Service Agency, as soon as it heard of the second of what might be an impending series of terrorist actions aimed at destroying vestiges of Pharaonic Egypt. While the Mukhabarat was able to prevent that bombing, Mossad developed a series of retaliatory steps aimed at punishing those terrorist agents while keeping Israel below the radar.
