"Aaron Klein's book is a gripping, real-life spy drama, a fascinating account of one of the opening
battles in the current jihad."Zev Chafets, author of Heroes and Hustlers, Hard Hats and Holy Men: Inside
the New Israel


1972. The Munich Olympics. Palestinian members of the Black September group murder eleven
Israeli athletes. Nine-hundred-million people watch the crisis unfold on television, witnessing a
tragedy that inaugurates the modern age of terror.

Back in Israel, Prime Minister Golda Meir vows to track down those responsible and, in Menachem Begin's words,
"run these criminals and murderers off the face of the earth." A secret Mossad unit is mobilized, a list of targets
drawn up. Thus begins the Israeli responsea mission that unfolds not over months but over decades. The Mossad
has never spoken about this operation. No one has known the real story. Until now.

In this riveting account Aaron Klein peels back the layers of myth and misinformation about the "shadow war" against
Black September and other terrorist groups.
