...a Cold War Assassin to Justice
Authors: Fred Burton, John Bruning; Format: Hardcover; Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan; ISBN: 9780230620551; Release Date: Apr 2011; List Price: $26.00; Length: 258 pages; Edition: 1; Other: Illustrated. Condition: Very Good. Withdrawn library copy with couple of stamps and inscription in back but no labels or stickers. Jacket and cover are both still in overall nice shape, binding is strong, and text throughout is unmarked. Same cover design as that shown here.
Synopsis:
On a warm Saturday night in July 1973 in Bethesda Maryland, a gunman stepped out from behind a tree and fired five point-blank shots into Joe Alon, an unassuming Israeli Air Force pilot and family man. Alon's sixteen-year-old neighbor, Fred Burton, was deeply shocked by this crime that rocked his sleepy suburban neighborhood. As it turned out, Alon wasn't just a pilot but a high-ranking military official with intelligence ties. The assassin was never found, and the case was closed. In 2007 Fred Burton, who had since become a State Department counterterrorism special agent, re-opened the case. Here Burton spins a gripping tale of the secret agents, double dealings, terrorists, and heroes he encounters as he chases leads around the globe in an effort to solve this decades-old murder. From swirling dogfights over Egypt and Hanoi to gun battles on the streets of Beirut, this action-packed thriller looks into the dark heart of the Cold War.
