Veiled Truths - Paperback

by Jim Silman (Author)

British Intelligence, American Special Forces plus a James Bond-inspired means of communication play a part in this love story. Leila, ever critical of the Kingdom's social restrictions, is in love with Walid and he loves her, but they're not sure of each other's feelings because in Saudi Arabia an unmarried couple is not allowed to be alone. Walid links up with British Intelligence in a scheme to find and destroy an Al-Qaida cache of explosives. Posing as a suicide bomber he connects with the terrorist group hoping it will lead to the secret location. Upon learning of his dangerous mission, and a setback in the original plan, Leila confronts the intelligence heads and joins them in their concern for Walid's seemingly hopeless situation. A great deal of suspense (plus a miracle) figures in Walid's fate.
