{"product_id":"9780976089827","title":"The Dirty Turban","description":"In this techno-terrorist action thriller Robert Mallory Hershey named his restaurant and bar on the Jersey Shore The Dirty Turban because it was the most offensive name he could get a permit for. Forced to resign from a storied law-enforcement career in the face of racial profiling charges, Hershey would eventually be vindicated when the men he was accused of profiling turned out to be members of Al-Qaeda. The Congressional hearings that eventually lead to his resignation thrust Hershey into the national political spotlight. He used his fame to make his case. He didn't pull his punches.\u003cbr\u003eBut Al-Qaeda perceived Hershey as weak.\u003cbr\u003eThey felt he could easily be manipulated. They believed they could use him as part of a new terror initiative and by kidnapping his wife, get him to betray his country to further their cause.\u003cbr\u003eThey were wrong.\u003cbr\u003eThe Dirty Turban is not a political statement. It is a story about a man, who, when pushed to his limits, took matters into his own hands, and did what was necessary to protect his family.\u003cbr\u003eThis techno-terrorist action thriller is in the same genre as The Fifth Horseman and The Sum of All Fears. If you like Clancy, Brown or Crichton then you will love The Dirty Turban.","brand":"Promotion Productions, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49849748422896,"sku":"9780976089827","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780976089827","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
