It was a defining moment, the first time 'Jihadi John' appeared.
Suddenly Islamic State had a face and the whole world knew the
extent of their savagery. Weeks later, when his identity was
revealed, Robert Verkaik was shocked to realise that this was a man
he'd interviewed years earlier. Back in 2010, Mohammed Emwazi was a
twenty-one-year-old IT graduate who claimed the security services
were ruining his life. They had repeatedly approached him, his
family and his fiancee. Had they been tracking an already dangerous
extremist or did they push him over the edge? In the aftermath of
the US air strike that killed Emwazi in November 2015, Verkaik's
investigation leads him to deeply troubling questions. What led
Emwazi to come to him for help in the first place? And why do
hundreds of Britons want to join Islamic State? In an investigation
both frightening and urgent, Verkaik goes beyond the making of one
terrorist to examine the radicalisation of our youth and to ask
what we can do to stop it happening in future.
