Akbar's Jihad

Join Akbar, and his father-in-law, Sarim, as they match wits with CIA agents in a safe house on the outskirts of Baghdad. Of course Akbar is aided by his bumbling, yet loyal friend Mansoor. CIA Station Chief Mike Mahoney has other ideas. So does Jennifer Boyles, his newest recruit. And what about the Iranians? All have more than a passing interest in the al-Kamal family. Mike is gathering intelligence from a local informant, Sayed, who just happens to be a long, lost, love of the beautiful Arisha - Akbar's devoted wife. Can she remain faithful to Akbar?

Ultimately events beyond their control cause the family to relocate from Iraq to America. First stop? New York, of course. How will this unique Iraqi family integrate into American society? Ask Francis, a precocious young, teen who lives across the street.

Become a member of the al-Kamal family as they struggle to protect their faith, family, and country. A thriller that will tug at your heartstrings, with a smattering of crazy humor, unforgettable characters, and an ending not easily forgotten.
