Description:
The implications are immense; the power brokers are scurrying. Who is Hebron - and will he pull off the most audacious mission in the history of espionage? More daring and damning than Watergate and Irangate! It's an election year and political tension and media hype are mounting fast. Israel has launched a high-risk covert operation to have its top operative - a prominent U.S. Senator - elected President of the United States. The womanising American Ambassador to the European Union is found dead in his Brussels mansion. The Iranians and Iraqis are suspected. Heads are going to roll.Meet Brenda Straus and Jackie Markovic, two of the most determined women you'll ever encounter - one, a whizzkid Special Agent for the FBI, the other a lethally-seductive, moist-mouthed assassin - as they battle it out in a geopolitical chess game that just may change the balance of world power.Written by a former top-level U.S. spy, Operation Hebron takes you from the thickly-upholstered nerve centres of Washington D.C., the spartan quarters of Jerusalem's brain trust, and a secluded dacha outside of Moscow, to the seedy bars of Brussels and a sun-drenched hide-away in Mallorca.Across time-zones and secret satellite transmissions author Eric Jordan offers a thrill ride through the corridors of power, and uncovers the most sensitive operations of the FBI, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, (SVR, ex-KGB) and the mythic Israeli Mossad.
