Publisher's Synopsis

El autor número uno en ventas, Ken Follett, cuenta la inspiradora historia real de la crisis de rehenes en Medio Oriente que comenzó en 1978 y de los medios poco convencionales que utilizó un estadounidense para salvar a sus compatriotas. . . .
 
A finales de la década de los 80, el sentimiento antinorteamericano afloraba en las calles del Teherán revolucionario de Jomeini, y los estadounidenses residentes eran forzados a abandonar el paìs. Algunos, sin embargo, fueron detenidos sin acusaciones concretas y ante la impasividad de las autoridades. Frente a esta situación, el multimillonario Ross Perot encarga a Bull Simons, coronel retirado de los Boinas Verdes y veterano de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y de Vietnam, que rescate a dos importantes directivos de su compañìa injustamente encarcelados.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

#1 bestselling author Ken Follett tells the inspiring true story of the Middle East hostage crisis that began in 1978, and of the unconventional means one American used to save his countrymen. . . .
 
When two of his employees were held hostage in a heavily guarded prison fortress in Iran, one man took matters into his own hands: businessman H. Ross Perot. His team consisted of a group of volunteers from the executive ranks of his corporation, handpicked and trained by a retired Green Beret officer. To free the imprisoned Americans, they would face incalculable odds on a mission that only true heroes would have dared. . . .
