Description

DUPLICITY is a ripped-from-the-headlines action thriller that takes readers into the hidden corridors of Washington politics and onto the streets of Mogadishu, Somalia with the same realism and intensity as Homeland and Black Hawk Down. Only two Americans escape when Islamic militants lead a Benghazi-style attack on a newly opened U.S. embassy in Somalia. Brooke Grant, the young commander of the Marine Corps Embassy Guards, and CIA Station Chief Gunter Connor become their colleagues' best hope for rescue after U.S. troops are barred from entering Mogadishu because of civil unrest. To survive, Grant and Connor must avoid detection by outwitting The Falcon, a treacherous Islamic radical christened "the Osama bin Laden" of Africa.

Reviews

[Gettysburg] is believable and beautifully written...every bit as good as Michael Sharra's The Killer Angels. Not only do Gingrich and Forstchen bring the characters to life, and often horrible death, but they do so with memorable observations on the ways of war and vivid, technically accurate descriptions of frightful Civil War combat.--The Courier Journal, on Gettysburg
A thrilling tale of America's darkest day.--W.E.B. Griffin on Pearl Harbor
An exciting page-turner about a presidential race and the face of terrorism.--Sean Hannity, #1 New York Times bestselling author and host of Hannity on FOX
The best political thrillers are written by those who have walked the walk, and Newt Gingrich's Duplicity is one of the best.--Nelson DeMille, #1 New York Times bestselling author
