The extraordinary inside story of Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda in
the years after 9/11. Following the attacks on the Twin Towers,
Osama bin Laden, the most wanted man in the world, eluded
intelligence services and Special Forces units for almost a decade.
Using remarkable, first-person testimony from bin Laden's family
and closest aides, The Exile chronicles this astonishing tale of
evasion, collusion and isolation. In intimate detail, The Exile
reveals not only the frantic attack on Afghanistan by the United
States in their hunt for bin Laden but also how and why, when they
found his family soon after, the Bush administration rejected the
chance to seize them. It charts the formation of ISIS, and uncovers
the wasted opportunity to kill its Al Qaeda-sponsored founder; it
explores the development of the CIA's torture programme; it details
Iran's secret shelter for bin Laden's family and Al Qaeda's
military council; and it captures the power struggles, paranoia and
claustrophobia within the Abbottabad house prior to the raid. A
landmark work of investigation and reportage, The Exile is as
authoritative as it is compelling, and essential reading for anyone
concerned with history, security and future relations with the
Islamic world.
