About the Book



"When two of his employees were held hostage in a heavily guarded prison fortress in Iran, one man took matters into his own hands: businessman H. Ross Perot. His team consisted of a group of volunteers from the executive ranks of his corporation, handpicked and trained by a retired Green Beret officer. To free the imprisoned Americans, they would face incalculable odds on a mission that only true heroes would have dared..."--Provided by publisher.



Book Synopsis



El autor número uno en ventas, Ken Follett, cuenta la inspiradora historia real de la crisis de rehenes en Medio Oriente que comenzó en 1978 y de los medios poco convencionales que utilizó un estadounidense para salvar a sus compatriotas. . . .

A finales de la década de los 80, el sentimiento antinorteamericano afloraba en las calles del Teherán revolucionario de Jomeini, y los estadounidenses residentes eran forzados a abandonar el país. Algunos, sin embargo, fueron detenidos sin acusaciones concretas y ante la impasividad de las autoridades. Frente a esta situación, el multimillonario Ross Perot encarga a Bull Simons, coronel retirado de los Boinas Verdes y veterano de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y de Vietnam, que rescate a dos importantes directivos de su compañía injustamente encarcelados.

To free the imprisoned Americans, they would face incalculable odds on a mission that only true heroes would have dared. . . .
