This time, all eyes are not just on Iran, but on Syria as well.

Israel has successfully launched a first strike on Iran, taking out all of their nuclear sites and six of their nuclear warheads—and causing The Twelfth Imam to order a full-scale retaliation. U.S. President William Jackson threatens to support a U.N. Security Council resolution condemning the Jewish State for unprovoked and unwarranted acts of aggression. Meanwhile, CIA operative David Shirazi has infiltrated the Iranian regime and intercepted information indicating that two Iranian nuclear warheads survived the attack and have been moved to a secure and undisclosed location.

In danger not only from the ongoing missile strikes on Iran but also from the increasingly hostile and suspicious governments of multiple countries, David and his team are in a race against time to find the remaining nuclear warheads before disaster strikes.

Ratings and reviews

I have read every novel Joel has written. I was hooked by the Last Jihad and have been a release date owner of every book since. The pacing of The Demascus Countdown is nearly perfect, with the plot twist and surprise moments very well executed. 5stars, and eagerly awaiting Rosenbergs next offering

I started reading The Twelfth Imam when the Damascus Countdown hit the shelf and quickly and very easily finished the Tehran Initiative. Now I am in the middle of this one and it is AMAZING!!! Joel is one of my favorite authors. Nothing he has published has been a disappointment. Excellent, excellent book!! Must read.

This book is insane, after you get about 100 pages in you will not be able to put it down for the next 300 pages. I lost nearly and entire nights sleep over this book.
