Previously published as 'In the Skin of a Jihadist' Twenty-year-old
'Melodie', a recent convert to Islam, meets the leader of an ISIS
brigade on Facebook. In 48 hours he has 'fallen in love' with her,
calls her every hour, urges her to marry him, join him in Syria in
a life of paradise - and join his jihad. Anna Erelle is the
undercover journalist behind 'Melodie'. Created to investigate the
powerful propaganda weapons of Islamic State, 'Melodie' is soon
sucked in by Bilel, right-hand man of the infamous Abu Bakr
al-Baghdadi. An Iraqi for whose capture the US government has
promised $10 million, al-Baghdadi is described by Time Magazine as
the most dangerous man in the world and by himself as the caliph of
Islamic State. Bilel shows off his jeep, his guns, his expensive
watch. He boasts about the people he has just killed. With Bilel
impatient for his future wife, 'Melodie' embarks on her highly
dangerous mission, which - at its ultimate stage - will go very
wrong ... Enticed into this lethal online world like hundreds of
other young people, including many young British girls and boys,
Erelle's harrowing and gripping investigation helps us to
understand the true face of terrorism.
