Ghost: Confessions of a Counterterrorism Agent

For decades, Fred Burton was a key figure in international counterterrorism and domestic spycraft. As a member of the State Department's Diplomatic Security Service in the mid 1980s, he was on the front lines of America's first campaign against terror. Now, in this hard-hitting memoir, Burton emerges from the shadows to reveal who he is, what he has accomplished, and the threats that lurk unseen except by an experienced, world-wise few. Told in a no-holds-barred, gripping, nuanced style, this behind-the-scenes account of one counterterrorism agent's life and career is a riveting read.
