A gripping feat of reportage that exposes—for the very first time in English—the sensational life and mysterious loss of life of Ashraf Marwan, an Egyptian senior recognized who spied for Israel, offering new insight in to the turbulent modern background of the center East.

As the son-in-regulation of Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser and a close advisor to his successor, Anwar Sadat, Ashraf Marwan had usage of the deepest secrets of the nation’s government. Along the way, he sheds brand-new light upon this volatile time in contemporary Egyptian and Middle Eastern background, culminating in 2011’s Arab Springtime. Five years later on, in 2007, his body was within the backyard of his London house building.

Drawing on meticulous analysis and interviews with many important individuals, Uri Bar Joseph items together Marwan’s tale. But Marwan himself experienced a key: He was a spy for the Mossad, Israel’s intelligence services.
