Timely, fast paced and hard to put down. Would make a helluva movie!” - Fred Bowditch, Book Reviewer 5 STARS! “What interests me more is the depth of his knowledge (clearly the author has a passion for it) about nuclear technology and how people can use it to destroy things.

Dr. Ross Shaheen, the developer of the software, is living the American dream. Between his internationally-recognized nuclear weapons research career at the prestigious Berkeley Lab and his picture-perfect family in the San Francisco suburbs, it's a good life that can only get better...until he is lured into lecturing before an elite group of scientists in the country of his birth: Iran. The seven thousand mile trip takes Shaheen back to the land of the lion and the sun, yet it also delivers to Iran's very doorstep an important American citizen with a Top Secret security clearance. It soon becomes clear what the Iranians are really after: the BLIND SCORPION. The coveted software is the key to advancing their clandestine nuclear weapons program without the rest of the world being able to prove its existence. Shaheen becomes entangled in a twisted web of espionage, corruption and survival, putting to the test not only his secret knowledge but also the very core of his allegiance to the land he now calls home. If he lives, Ross Shaheen could walk away a hero. The question is, for which country?

A Timely, Unputdownable Thriller By Claude Forthomme (Nougat) When I was approached by Mike Wells with the offer of a free ebook copy in exchange for an honest review, I couldn't resist, the premise was both exciting and incredibly timely now that a deal has just been reached with Iran on its nuclear program and, at the time of writing this review, has yet to be approved by Congress. I don't normally read thrillers (I'm more into literary fiction) but this one really delivers on its promise.Fast paced and suspenseful, it features a surprising range of highly likekable characters, in particular the sprightly and brilliant Dr. Shaheen, the Iranian-American scientist who is the hero of the story, and his beautiful Russian wife and their two teenage children, as well as his wife's father, lovable and grumpy General Pugachov. The latter has become friends with Colonel Nash, the steely Deputy Director of Operations at the CIA, both united in their fight against terrorism. Add to this gallery, the sexy TV reporter, the clever CIA agent and a range of unpleasant characters and villains, including the Iranian scientist who has developed the bomb and a violent Russian spy.What I liked the most, however, in this well-written spy thriller, was the depiction of Iran, how it is remembered by Dr. Shaheen who left it as a young man, and how he finds the country changed when he returns there now. This is a thoroughly well-researched book by a person in the know, including fascinating details about making an atomic bomb (no fear, there are not enough details to actually build one!). This aspect of the book is of course not best-selling author Mike Wells doing, it is the work of his college friend, an Iranian-American, Farsheed Ferdowsi who had originally published this book under the title "Mushroom in the Sand". I haven't read that earlier version of this book but I have no doubts that Mike Wells professional writing talent has a lot to do with the way this book looks now, re-edited with an enticing new title. If you visit Mike Wells' blog, you will get a description of how this book was born: he closely followed Ferdowsi, chapter by chapter as he wrote it and in the end, brought his editing talents to bear and now his marketing support. Small wonder Mr. Ferdowsi had no time for book promotion: he is a serial entrepreneur, creating a string of companies in the information technology industry, and he was recognized by the Nashville Business Journal as the "Entrepreneur of the Year" in 2002.

Truly, this cannot be better than his last series: Lust, Money and Murder?Dr Rosham "Ross" Shaheen has a brilliant mind, creator of a special program the Blind Scorpion, he can pioneered a system that can calculate the destruction a nuclear bomb might cause if activated.What interests me more is the depth of his knowledge (clearly the author has a passion in it) about nuclear reactions and how people can use it to destroy things. In addition to that, we have many big players in the book: MOIS, Mossad, US and Russia, all in it for various reasons.When Ross agreed to travel to Iran, he did so with high risk. He might never return home to see his family again, and even if he manages, his future will be uncertain. It is nerve- wrecking to see a man plagued by his morals and loyalty.Somehow, the big players are the one with nice toys, while Ross has to rely mostly on his given few and his own intelligence, which made the book gripping. Although he is not McGyver, but he proves that when there is a will there is a way.Generally, the story is strong, and the book is well researched. I read it for these two, although the characters are good, they are probably not going to be remembered as much as the story for me.Overall, this one might be a close second in my favourite collection for Mike Wells' series, mainly because I liked Elaine Brogan more as she can kick ass. You should try both books if you are into espionage and spying tricks.
