“The Convert’s Song is that rare thing, a rousing thriller with heart and heartbreak…An affecting drama of human ties, raising big themes of loyalty, obligation, loss and love…[Rotella’s] prose is vivid and precise, his sense of setting sharply illuminating…He’s also a thoughtful writer, treating the loaded topic of Islamic terrorism with commendable subtlety…A skillfully layered thriller.”
Los Angeles Times
A global manhunt sweeps up a former federal agent when his childhood friend becomes the chief suspect in a terrorist rampage.
His hazardous stint in U.S. law enforcement behind him, Valentine Pescatore has started over as a private investigator in Buenos Aires. Then he runs into a long-lost friend: Raymond Mercer, a charismatic, troubled singer who has converted to Islam. After a terrorist attack kills hundreds, suspicion falls on Raymond -- and Pescatore.
Angry and bewildered, Pescatore joins forces with Fatima Belhaj, an alluring French agent. They pursue the enigmatic Raymond into a global labyrinth of intrigue. Is he a terrorist, a gangster, a spy? Is his loyalty to Pescatore genuine, or just another lethal scam? From the jungles of South America to the streets of Paris to the battlegrounds of Baghdad, The Convert's Song leads Pescatore on a race to stop a high-stakes campaign of terror.
