| Summary |
Paris, Christmas Eve, 1994. The symbol that defines the city lights up the winter night. A thousand miles away in Algeria, the fate of the French capital hangs in the balance. Four Islamist extremists are preparing to highjack an Air France plane. But this will be a highjacking with a terrible difference: no political demands, no negotiations over hostages. The highjackers are about to vent their fury on France . The plan foreshadows Osama Bin Laden's holy war against the west. Seven years before 9/11 , the terrorists are planning to fly to Paris and crash the plane with over 200 passengers on board into the heart of the city |
