Here's the set-up:
In this provocative political thriller an ex-British
SAS officer goes up against powerful conspirators who are about to
regret they ever met him! Readers call it riveting, thought provoking, can't put the book down reading; a masterpiece of psychological warfare; superior storytelling and liken it to the best of John Le Carré.
Rufus Reed, ex-British Special Forces is kidnapped, falsely accused
of terrorism and taken to a secret CIA "Black Site" for
questioning. He's not only up against his captors, but dangerous
elements at the top levels of government who intend to use him as part
of a plan to ensure "their man" wins the Presidency of the United
States. Seeking power at all costs, they set in motion a global
conspiracy of unthinkable proportions.
Yet nothing is quite what it seems, and Rufus is no ordinary prisoner.
As
he slowly plants seeds of doubt in the minds of his captors,
related events explode on the world stage racing with unnerving twists
and turns from Hong Kong, Jordan, Italy, Latvia and the USA to the
highest levels of the CIA, the Knesset and the Vatican. What's at
stake is not just Reed's survival, but that of democracy and freedom as
we know it!
And just as you
think you know what's going to happen, three powerful figures - a
high-profile Iranian Muslim woman, a former Israeli Intelligence
Officer, and a Catholic mining billionaire - reveal their true
intentions and propel the story to a riveting and unexpected conclusion!

One Reviewer Notes:
AFN Clarke's book is terrific. In the vein of Arthur Hiller's "Catch 22", "An Unquiet American" not only conveys the horrors of imprisonment and its brutal tortures, but also the wry comedic wit of Rufus Reed, the protagonist. Not only does he - through his vast historic knowledge - change the minds of his captors, but he eventually saves them as well. The story has all of the intrigue of a "Bond" novel, villains taken from "today's headlines," and an insight into the political world that we are all suffering the repercussions from. I'd highly recommend it.
