Almost four decades ago, an Israeli sub heading home vanishedat sea. The crew was presumed dead by most of the world with only a few Mossad officials knowing that the lost sailors were given false identities to go undercover around the world. For instance, one went to America while others hid in Egypt and Iran, etc. Loved ones knew nothing, assuming all were dead. Over the subsequent years, many of these men assumed positions of power so that can complete the tasks assigned to them. By 2002, these men reach the point where they can stop the annihilation of their homeland. The terror begins when two hundred missiles filled with toxic gas hits Tel Aviv killing hundreds of thousands. Israel retaliates in brutal fashion at Iran and Egypt. The Moslem world declares a Jihad that takes the world to the brink of Armageddon with only one person potentially able to stop it by rallying the forces of God to him. SAMSON'S LION contains five distinct parts with each segment narrated by a different Mossad agent. As each story ends, a single plot line emerges that climaxes in a dramatic fashion. Author Alex Wolf tells an exciting story that occasionally slows down with technical detail. Eventually, the tale takes the reader to the spiritual choice between the end of the world or redemption through a man who might be a savior or the devil. This epic saga works because of the strength of its charcaters.Harriet Klausner
