Description
Aimen Dean's story is one of unexpected betrayal and redemption. As a young Muslim, he was drawn to the cause of al-Qaeda, rubbing shoulders with the mastermind behind the 9/11 attacks. However, a fateful decision to work undercover for his sworn enemy would change the course of his life forever. As a double agent at the heart of al-Qaeda's chemical weapons programme, Dean found himself in a deadly game of cat and mouse. He foiled attacks on civilians, saved countless lives, and narrowly escaped death on numerous occasions. His handlers began to call him their spy with nine lives, a testament to his bravery and cunning. This gripping memoir takes readers on a journey through the killing fields of Bosnia, the training camps of Afghanistan, and the treacherous landscape of Syria. It is a story of how one man's faith and conviction were tested, and how he ultimately found a way to stop the global jihad.
