Loved this book. It open the door to many web sites I didn't know existed. I hope he writes a follow-up in a few years. Winston L. Ellerbeck

What a well-written book, of an American tragedy. You really get a glimpse of all the people involved. Truly great.

I've read it 2x in one month. Outstanding book!

Warrick does a wonderful job of describing each of the heroes of this true life tragedy. Very well written.

For those who might question our tactics in obtaining intelligence from terrorists, this book is a must read. Kudos to Joby Warrick for having the courage and connections to write the hard truth. And for the men and women on the firing line, thank you for your service. Yours is the ultimate sacrifice.

This book, more akin to a documentary, is as touching as it is fascinating. It steps you through the events of recent terrorist attacks providing crucial information to clarify the often confusing situations. Written very clearly, providing insights from almost all the team members present during the missions. B

Great book. Thank you for this unbelievable research. Also, thank you yo all the characters! Your sacrifices will never be forgotten.

Well written (breezed through with no double takes), and very informative. Enjoyed it, and learned a lot.

A very well-written account of this story and the effect on the war against the war leading up the death of Osama bin Laden.

The human tendency to think wishfully is evident, and the real need for the leaders of our intelligence operations to collaborate and internalize the insights provided by those who are actually responsible for carrying out the day to day grind of trying valiantly to put a stop to the bizarre and dangerous motivations of a small set of extremists. Strong decision makers are requisite for the difficult work in which they are involved, but good decisions are made by shedding any tendency toward hubris and listening. The tragedy and it's long lasting impact was absolutely avoidable.
