THE MADMEN OF BENGHAZI, available for the first time in the U.S., is a
gripping, racy, ripped-from-the-headlines espionage thriller set in
volatile post-Qaddafi Libya.
Gerard de Villiers (1929 2013) spent
his five-decade career cultivating connections in the world of
international intelligence, which allowed him to anticipate geopolitical
events before they occurred and to masterfully blend fiction with an
insider s knowledge of international affairs. Published from 1964 until
his death in 2013, his bestselling SAS series of 200 spy novels,
starring Malko Linge, was long considered France s answer to Ian
Fleming, with Malko as his James Bond.
Its hero, Malko Linge, an
Austrian aristocrat, spends his time freelancing for the CIA in order to
support his playboy lifestyle.
When terrorists try to shoot down a
plane carrying Libyan prince Ibrahim al-Senussi, it is clear that
someone wants him dead. But the CIA has its own plot for the prince: Now
that Qaddafi has been overthrown, al-Senussi is their best bet to set
up a constitutional monarchy and stem the Islamist tide in Libya. The
CIA, which needs Malko as much as he needs them, sends the Austrian
aristocrat to Cairo to learn more about al-Senussi s plans by seducing
his companion, a ravishing British model. This mission is enormously
appealing, but also proves enormously dangerous, as the same madman of
God who is trying to kill al-Senussi also takes aim at Malko
