THE MULLAH'S STORM by Thomas W. Young

"One of the most exciting new thriller talents in years!" —Vince Flynn

"Gripping and impressively authentic." —Frederick Forsyth


A transport plane carrying an important Taliban detainee for interrogation is shot down in a blizzard over Afghanistan. For two people-navigator Michael Parson and a woman Army interpreter, Sergeant Gold-a battle for survival begins across some of the most forbidding terrain on earth against not only the hazards of nature but the treacheries of man: the Taliban stalking them; the villagers, whose loyalty is unknown; and a prisoner who would very much like the three of them to be caught. All Parson and Gold have is each other, to stay alive.

An extraordinary debut novel about courage and survival in Afghanistan, written as only a man who has "been there and done that" could tell it.

"A riveting, gale-force tale impossible to put down. Combining a sniper's precision with a poet's economy of language, Young's debut makes you grateful to be reading safely indoors, but just a little nervous about who might be watching you."

—Craig M. Mullaney, Department of Defense, Principal Director for Afghanistan, Pakistan and Central Asia Policy, and author of The Unforgiving Minute: A Soldier's Education

"The Mullah's Storm tears along with the terror and immediacy of a nightmare. Thomas Young takes us on the trip every soldier dreads: alone, injured, and being chased through enemy territory. I couldn't put it down."

—Nathaniel Fick, CEO, Center for a New American Security, and author of One Bullet Away: The Making of a Marine Officer

"The Mullah's Storm digs in its hooks from the first chapter and never lets go. There are writers, and there are fighters -- readers are lucky that Thomas Young is both."

—Alex Berenson, author of The Faithful Spy and The Midnight House
