'The Sisterhood' brings to life the true story of the network of
brilliant female intelligence analysts who began pursuing Al-Qaeda
leader Osama bin Laden in the 1990s, long before he became
notorious. In the years leading up to 9/11, they repeatedly and
fruitlessly warned government officials of an impending major
assault on US soil, but were ignored because they were women
working in an unglamorous part of the CIA. After 9/11 shook the
country, and the world, these women had no choice but to push
forward, putting their families, social lives, and health on the
backburner as they worked around the clock to dismantle Al-Qaeda
and bring the world’s most infamous terrorist to justice. Liza
Mundy skilfully animates the lives of these unsung heroes,
delivering a thrilling narrative that heralds the essential
contributions women have made to global security, intelligence, and
espionage work, as well as the trials and sacrifices they’ve
faced to earn trust and respect in a traditionally male-dominated
field.
