Devil's Light by Richard North Patterson
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
The plot is about a missing nuclear warhead,threats by Al-Qaeda to annihilate USA on the 9/11 anniversary, chaos, mayhem and search for the bomb in the Middle-East. The plot is thin but interspersed with the political history of Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan which makes it interesting. However, at those points, the book drags a bit and the reader tends to get disinterested. The book grips when you follow the bomb on its journey to its destination.
To sum up the book, a cat and mouse game to avert human tragedy of catastrophic proportions.
