The Mission - Jefferson Galt - A Novel
2010. A growing terrorist threat across South East Asia is taking in districts popular with American tourists. Kidnappings, murders, disappearances and bombs are the usual tools of the trade. A mix of attacks in the name of religion are the tools of those seeking separation on the one hand and a unified single-religion state on the other on the one hand and extortion-as-a-business on the other has spread. Bombs in Bangkok, Jakarta, across Borneo and in Kuala Lumpur and Singapore are found to be masterminded by a tiny number of specialists. Intelligence reports say that one group is gearing up for a high-profile attack on the holiday island of Phuket.
In Washington, Shirley Walker, the first female head of the Central Intelligence Agency formulates a plan. Paul Walker, a young clerical worker at Langley, has experience of living in Thailand and even working in a bar in Phuket. He will be sent as a backpacker to find one of the specialists called “The Armourer.”
He arrives in Phuket but his carefully created cover, his legend, breaks down.
For more than three years, he is commoditised between several groups, smuggled across borders and within countries while the impotence of intelligence agencies is laid bare.
Rescue, when it comes, is not at like the ideas of return that has sustained him.
--------------------------
The story is carefully researched fiction with many factual elements interwoven to create a tale of courage and organisational failure against a backdrop that has not faded away despite a lack of interest from the international media.
