The world has entered a second nuclear age. For the first time since the end of the Cold War, the threat of nuclear annihilation is on the rise. Should such an assault occur, there is a strong likelihood that the trail of devastation will lead back to Abdul Qadeer Khan, the Pakistani father of the Islamic bomb and the mastermind behind a vast clandestine enterprise that has sold nuclear secrets to Iran, North Korea, and Libya. Khan's loose-knit organization was and still may be a nuclear Wal-Mart, selling weapons blueprints, parts, and the expertise to assemble the works into a do-it-yourself bomb kit. Amazingly, American authorities could have halted his operation, but they chose instead to watch and wait. Khan proved that the international safeguards the world relied on no longer worked.
Journalists Douglas Frantz and Catherine Collins tell this alarming tale of international intrigue through the eyes of the European and American officials who suspected Khan, tracked him, and ultimately shut him down, but only after the nuclear genie was long out of the bottle.

Hardcover mit Schutzumschlag. Zustand: Gut. 432 Seiten Gelesen, aber in einwandfreiem Zustand. - Eine journalistische Ermittlung im Stil eines Thrillers, hier ein Beispiel: "When B. S. A. Tahir arrived at Khan's apartment in Dubai in late 1998, the partners knew that they had arrived at a troublesome obstacle to building Lybia's bomb factory. (.) The first task facing Khan and Tahir that day was deciding where to locate the initial plant. (.) The logical choice, they decided, was right under our noses: Dubai." Spannend, aber nur sehr vage dokumentiert, wie dies sich für einen Thriller gehört. Die Perspektive ist streng amerikanisch. ISBN 9780446199575 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 653.
