Rose cannot believe her husband died in the Caliphate. Her lover goes to Iraq to find and rescue him. Will she now lose both to the violence of the terror group? Rose is a teacher who went through a painful divorce. But she never thought her ex, Ahmed, would leave for the Caliphate and get killed there. Devastated and feeling betrayed, she finds solace and support in the strong arms of his best friend, Sam. But then Sam is asked by the secret service to follow Ahmed into the Caliphate and work undercover for them. To both her surprise and dismay, Rose is contacted by Ahmed's former slave. Through Dua, she discovers his diary from his time as an emir in the terror state. Rose now finds herself in the warm embrace of women who join her search for both Ahmed and Sam. Suspense and romance are combined with real-life stories about resistance and survival in the ISIS Caliphate. Like those from yezidi-women like Dua who were kidnapped to become sex slaves, and the secret networks that rescued them. Judit Neurink used her knowledge from her longtime reporting from Iraq and about the war on ISIS to tell the story of people who got caught up in the open-air prison of the Caliphate. Praise for The Good Terrorist Judit Neurink has written a quality fictional account of a painfully nonfictional reality. She provides an expert inside glance into a world that most of us know nothing about: the horror and anguish of families who are left to wonder whether and why loved ones have joined a terrorist organization. The author has lived and worked among Iraqis and Kurds, and bears witness of what she knows firsthand and has seen upfront like few others can.
Willem Meiners, ex publisher and editor, author of A President in Love, a biography of Warren Harding The tension in Judit Neurink's latest novel is like a weight upon your chest, rich in detail it captures the fear and uncertainty as Islamic State's emerged, and the group's ability to reach far beyond its borders into the lives and minds of recruits in the west.
Quentin Sommerville, BBC reporter who reported on the war against ISIS in Iraq The Good Terrorist shows that nothing is what it seems. Who is good and who is bad in this world? Judit Neurink gives you ammunition to think about what we call 'terrorism'.
Jeroen Windmeijer, author at HarperCollins Holland In The Good Terrorist, Judit Neurink takes the reader to the horror world of ISIS. And places opposite to the cruelties of the Caliphate the deep goodness of the human being. The human in all his vulnerability stands against pure evil, and Neurink whispers to us that love is invincible. Her talented pen is recommended for everyone who wants to better understand these black pages of the human history.
Erdal Balci, author and journalist I enjoyed The Good Terrorist, which made the long trip from Istanbul to Montreal seem shorter than it was. I found it to be interesting, horrifying, and educational.
