American Radical

A longtime undercover agent, Tamer Elnoury joined an elite counterterrorism unit after September 11, 2001. Its express purpose was to gain the trust of terrorists whose goals were to kill as many Americans as possible in public, devastating attacks.

It was a furious race against the clock for Elnoury and his unit to stop them before they could implement their plans. Yet the techniques were as simple as listen, record, and prove terrorist intent.

It is no secret that federal agencies have waged a broad, global war against terror, through and after the war in Afghanistan. But for the first time, in this memoir, an active Muslim American federal agent reveals his experience infiltrating and bringing down a terror cell in North America.

Due to his ongoing work for the FBI, Elnoury writes under a pseudonym. An Arabic-speaking Muslim American, a patriot and dedicated federal agent, he will be a revelation to many Americans, as will the existence and the vital, dangerous work of his team in keeping Americans safe.

An explosive memoir of a Muslim American FBI agent fighting terror from the inside.
