On June 27, 1975, a young Venezuelan made headlines by killing four men and committing numerous violent acts, including a grenade attack in a cafe, an assassination attempt on the President of the Zionist Federation of Great Britain, and the kidnapping of OPEC ministers in Vienna. Known as Carlos, or The Jackal, he became the world's most wanted man. David Yallop located Carlos in a small village in the Bekaa Valley near Beirut, where he spent two nights listening to part of Carlos's story. However, the trail went cold under tragic circumstances. Over the next seven years, Yallop's quest to rediscover Carlos transformed into an exploration of terrorism, espionage, and Middle Eastern politics. He uncovered alarming truths about the infiltration of American and French governments by Arab intelligence and the millions paid by international airlines to a Palestinian terror group for protection. Yallop also revealed information that could have prevented the Lockerbie disaster and uncovered the reasons behind the massacre of thousands of Palestinians in the Sabra and Chatila refugee camps.
