An informed and informative account of Canada’s experience with terrorism. Written by a seasoned insider, Gurski’s observations have relevance that extends beyond the country’s borders. An important contribution to the field, a fascination read.

I consider it an absolute “must read” for any security intelligence and counter-terrorism practitioner, as well as anyone interested in geo-politics.

Phil takes the reader on an informative, scintillating journey through various scenarios that reinforce the message that terrorism has no boundaries.

I couldn’t stop reading this book. Phil Gurski takes you behind the scenes and discusses a subject which not many people like to talk about.
