About this product
Product Information
As one of al-Qaeda's most respected scholars and bomb-makers, Aimen Dean rubbed shoulders with the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks and swore allegiance to Osama bin Laden himself. His job was already one of the most dangerous in the world. But what the others didn't know was that he was working undercover for MI6. This is the story of a young Muslim determined to defend his faith, even if it meant dying for the cause, the terrible disillusionment that followed when he realised he was fighting on the wrong side, and the fateful decision to work undercover with his sworn enemy. In a career spanning decades in some of the most lethal conflicts of the past fifty years, we discover what it's like to be at the heart of the global jihad, and what it will take to stop it once and for all.

Reviews
'This is the most fascinating book about al-Qaeda I've read in a long time. It is a realistic and down-to earth account of al-Qaeda's chemical weapons programme, told by one of its insiders. It's a must-read for everyone who wants to understand al-Qaeda and the evolution of international terrorism.', 'It is rare that Western secret services place an agent within an organisation such as al-Qaida... It is unprecedented that any such individual publishes a detailed memoir of more than a decade of his activity at very nearly the highest possible levels of Islamist militancy.', 'An incisive history of the war on terrorism and a riveting true-life thriller... An important book that sheds new light on al-Qaeda's violent trajectory and its continued, stubborn resilience.', 'Nine Lives provides a stunning inside account of the making of a senior al-Qaeda operative, who trained with the organization's master bomb-maker and WMD-specialist, who turned into an MI6 spy, foiling terrorist plots and uncovering al-Qaeda networks. The story of Aimen Dean is as close as you'll ever get to the real thing. The book provides unique intelligence insights into the inner workings of al-Qaeda before and after 9/11. It also reveals how MI6 used him as one of its most valuable intelligence weapons in the global war on terrorism.', As sinuous and engrossing as a John le Carré story but all true - a welcome addition to the literature surrounding the war on terror., 'A compelling and invaluable account of life inside al-Qaeda through the eyes of a first-rate spy. This unique narrative throws open the shutters of the secret world of terror.', ' Nine Lives provides a stunning inside account of the making of a senior al-Qaeda operative, who trained with the organization's master bomb-maker and WMD-specialist, who turned into an MI6 spy, foiling terrorist plots and uncovering al-Qaeda networks. The story of Aimen Dean is as close as you'll ever get to the real thing. The book provides unique intelligence insights into the inner workings of al-Qaeda before and after 9/11. It also reveals how MI6 used him as one of its most valuable intelligence weapons in the global war on terrorism.', 'An endlessly fascinating portrayal of al-Qaeda and the jihadist movement before and after 9/11...a thrill ride of an autobiography... Nine Lives is also an exquisite portrait of what it is like to be a secret agent caught in limbo between the West and the Middle East... A must-read for anyone who seriously wants to end the scourge of jihadi terrorism in the West and the East.', 'This captivating real-life spy-thriller is a must-read to understand the enduring threat of global terror. It provides a fascinating account of one of the most lethal terrorist groups, from the unique perspective of a courageous double agent - an excellent read all round.', 'A major contribution to the literature of espionage, and a rare book to say something original about contemporary jihadism.', 'A must-read for anyone interested in the inside story of the last two decades of the so-called War on Terror. This book defies easy classification. Is it an insightful book on intelligence tradecraft? Certainly so. Is it an important primer on the evolution of radical jihadism? Without question. Is it a key resource for our understanding of counter-terrorism policy and practice in the twenty-first century? Absolutely.', 'An endlessly fascinating portrayal of al-Qaeda and the jihadist movement before and after 9/11...a thrill ride of an autobiography...Nine Lives is also an exquisite portrait of what it is like to be a secret agent caught in limbo between the West and the Middle East... A must-read for anyone who seriously wants to end the scourge of jihadi terrorism in the West and the East.', 'Aimen Dean has been on most of the major jihadist battlefields of the past three decades and met many of the most significant figures... Not only a gripping page-turner, but also an extraordinary contemporary history of the global terror threat.', 'One of the most extraordinary, captivating and insightful accounts of involvement in the violent global jihad. For many years, Aimen Dean risked his life time and time again, penetrated the leadership of al-Qaeda and saved many lives. Britain owes him a debt of gratitude. A seminal book.'
