Publisher's Summary
With the pacing of a thriller, a veteran journalist's account of the terrorist behind the Mumbai attacks and a planned attack in Europe.
David Headley, the American Pakistani also known as Daood Gilani, lived a double life. One day he would stroll through Central Park in his tailored Armani suit as a true New Yorker, and the next he would browse in the bazaar in Lahore wearing traditional Pakistani clothes. One day he would drink champagne at the most extravagant clubs; on another he would prostrate himself in prayer in remote Pakistan and pledge fidelity to Allah.
Born in 1960, the son of an American mother and a Pakistani father, with one blue eye and one brown, Headley grew up between East and West. He was attracted to both worlds, even working as an informant for the US government, until one day he found he had to choose between the place of his birth and a radical form of Islam preaching global jihad. This is the disturbing story of the mastermind behind the 2008 attacks in Mumbai that killed 166 people - who two months later flew to Copenhagen to plan another act of terror with the help of al-Qaeda sleeper cells in Europe.
Veteran journalist Kaare Sørensen has reconstructed his movements and planning in a tense feat of reportage. His account, based on extensive reporting, eyewitness interviews, and documentation including wiretaps, court transcripts, and emails by Headley accessed from a chat room cache of 9,000 messages, offers unprecedented insight into the mind of the terrorist. The author has provided updates and a new preface for the English-language edition.

Fabulous
Very interesting book... keeps you glued. There is suspense, drama everything. All the investigating agencies may not know how these operations are planned and executed. This book can be a good training manual for these agencies.

A very well researched instance in history.
A well researched book and a gripping narration of how the mind of a terrorist works. It is hard to realise how the religious beliefs of some radical elements can cause havoc to the world at large without any national or geographical limitations. The world should stand united in eliminating these kind of elements from the face of the earth.

Engaging listen!
This was a good insight into the planning that went into the disgusting attacks in Mumbai and also the many flaws with the law enforcement agencies despite red flags. The audio quality of the narrator could’ve been a bit better but overall it was an engaging listen.

Was so good, I want to read it again. Very well researched. The author takes you inside the mind of the terrorist especially David Headley. If you have heard of the Mumbai attack, you will want to hear this book.
