About the book

Tracing al-Qaeda's roots back to the jihad against the Soviets in Afghanistan, the author picks up the complicated trail that led to the collapse of the Twin Towers September 11 2001. She investigates into the genesis and organisation of al-Qaeda, and constitutes a damning indictment of the West's failure to respond to its threat and also a warning. There will be further attacks, and this book tries to explain how and why.
