4.9/5 (9209 ratings)

Description:“I, for the life of me, cannot understand why the terrorists have not attacked our food supply, because it is so easy to do.” —Tommy Thompson, US Secretary of Health and Human Services, December 7, 2004 Just before he was killed, Osama bin Laden’s and his deputy, Ayman al Zawahiri, meet with al Qaeda’s Shura Council in an abandoned house in Pakistan. They discuss plans for a new holy war, a large-scale bioterrorism attack on the U.S. For this war, they will partner with their former enemy, the Iranians. The plan includes collecting samples containing infectious agents such as cholera germs from patients seen in hospital emergency rooms in Pakistan and Bangladesh. The samples are then sent to a makeshift laboratory in North Waziristan where the pathogens are propagated and packaged for shipment to the US. Meanwhile in the US, a network of American-born radicalized teen-agers is recruited and deployed as bag boys in supermarkets. When Winston Sage, MD, an offbeat, retired epidemiologist living in Santa Fe, was asked to serve on a boondoggle State Committee on Bioterrorism, the last thing he could have imagined was that he would unravel al Qaeda’s planned strike on the US; be enlisted by the FBI; and be personally commended by the President at the White House. Sage’s unorthodox thinking clashes with the FBI, but helps abort the attacks—well, almost. Praise for The Bag Boys’ Jihad: “As in Grufferman’s (The Warring States Conundrum, 2017) preceding novel, Win is a likable protagonist. He has strong opinions but is open to others’ suggestions; consequently, people listen to him, even if his early declaration of an epidemic sounds far-fetched. The author astutely shows the intricacies of the terrorists’ plan, especially the multitude of participants. Some are devout while others are horrified upon realizing the leaders consider certain individuals expendable. Intelligent dialogue makes discussions about various strains of disease perfectly comprehensible, aided by a steady momentum via brief chapters. Humor comes primarily from Win’s wife, Julia, whose sardonic comments are endearing. Once Win is entangled in the potential terrorist plot, she simply says: ‘I told you not to get involved with this dumb project.’ An absorbing jihadist thriller bolstered by complex villains and a winsome, levelheaded protagonist.” —Kirkus ReviewsWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
