Darius, an Iranian American Army Ranger, is captured in Afghanistan and appears to have turned traitor. Kamran, his younger brother, believes Darius has been coerced and sets out to prove his innocence. Kamran experiences hair-raising adventures and narrow escapes as he foils a major terrorist attempt during the Super Bowl. This fast-paced novel is contrived and improbable but will be a page-turner for thriller buffs.
