The Persian Viper
G. B. Mooney
A Jihad terrorist biological attack will slither in like a silent deadly snake and kill without a warning flash of light or explosion.
This stunning novel, first drafted in 1995, immerses the reader in an Iraqi plot to biologically contaminate the water supply systems of major U.S. cities. An Iraqi microbiologist, driven from his Muslim faith by devastating, heartbreaking events during the Persian Gulf War, leads terrorists into the U.S. The plot is discovered by U.S. intelligence. A team led by an American war hero Intelligence Officer, with assistance from his brilliant wife, reacts frantically to derail the terrorist plot. Millions of Americans will die if the U.S. team fails.
The fast-moving plot evolves through male and female characters from divergent cultures. They are real, sometimes flawed, confused, intelligent, successful, and romantic. Muslim religious traditions distorted by Jihad contradictions are intertwined with the political history of Iraq and its neighboring countries.
