Four airplanes are blown out of the sky...hundreds of civilians are dead, and the world is gripped by fear. As young American reporter Marie Peterssen investigates the attacks, she meet Julian Granot, a mysterious Israeli operative who offers her an exciting lead - one that points them to maverick FBI agent Morgan Ensley and the ravages of war-torn Iraq.Soon Marie, Julian and Morgan discover a connection between the crashes and a devastating plot to detonate a nuclear bomb in a New York City port - and time is running out. As Marie races to stop a sophisticated network of terrorists, she stumbles upon a shocking revelation: She may have a deep personal connection to the Islamic mastermind behind the attacks. Now she will stop at nothing to uncover the truth. But it could cost Marie and her team the mission...and their lives.

Media Reviews
Cagily realistic. -- Library Journal (starred review) Benedek is a tremendous young talent. --Stephen Coonts Benedek's realistic and factual thriller about terrorism is not only a heart-stopping read, it informs as much as it entertains. --Naomi Ragen, author of The Covenant and The Saturday Wife Benedek is one hell of a writer! Red Sea never lets up from its gripping start, where airliners are blown out of the sky over the Atlantic, right to its page-turning conclusion in New York City. Red Sea announces the arrival of a breathtaking new voice. --Stephen J. Cannell, author of White Sister A gripping foray into the world of terrorism...A whirlwind ride. --Steven Emerson, founder of The Investigative Project on Terrorism and author of Jihad Incorporated The world's intelligence services are riveted by their investigations of four crashed jetliners, but a far dirtier game is afoot...While not a roman a clef, this debut thriller by a seasoned reporter purports to arise from the experiences of a real Israeli counterterrorism expert. Combining the nuts and bolts of a technothriller with the emotional resonance of young adventurers seeking truth and honor, Benedek's very readable [saga] will have readers anticipating further escapades...Strongly recommended for popular fiction collections. -- Library Journal (starred review) Red Sea is filled with complex plot twists and memorable characters, plus a chilling vision of a terrorist attack even deadlier than 9/11. --Nelson DeMille, author of Wild Fire Riveting... The author's countless hours of research are evident in the extensive details, which make the novel come alive with chilling realism. - Romantic Times
