Produktbeschreibung
Perfect Storm is the untold, full account of the 26/11 Mumbai attacks--an operation that shook the world and paralyzed India's financial capital for 60 terrifying hours. On the night of November 26, 2008, ten men slipped into Mumbai by sea and launched one of the most audacious terrorist strikes since 9/11. But the story of this attack began decades earlier. It spans continents, ideologies, intelligence failures, geopolitical rivalries, and a network of characters whose motives intersected in deadly ways. Drawing on meticulous research, Perfect Storm peels back every layer of this conspiracy--tracing its roots from the violence surrounding Pakistan's birth in 1947, through the shifting power dynamics of the post-9/11 world, to the operational decisions made inside militant training camps and intelligence units. With unparalleled insight into counterterror operations, former Intelligence Bureau officer Prabhakar Aloka brings decades of firsthand experience to the narrative. Co-author Nikhil Ravi, a screenwriter and filmmaker known for documenting Indo-Pak flashpoints, adds cinematic clarity and investigative depth. Together, they reconstruct the spider's web behind 26/11--from dusty training camps and radicalization pipelines to encrypted hacker dens in Southeast Asia--offering an unprecedented look into the anatomy of a state-sponsored terror attack. This is the definitive story of 26/11. Told fully. Told clearly. Told at last.
