"Egypt is the next domino to fall and, as they say, so goes Egypt so goes the Middle East.” - Robert Baer, former Middle East-based CIA operative, author of See No Evil and Sleeping with the Devil “This book is stunning in its revelations of Mubarak’s stranglehold on every aspect of life in this glorious, long- suffering nation. Connecting one mysterious dot to the next, the author teases the reader from chapter to chapter as he lucidly explains the details of Egypt’s worst kept secrets of all…the ‘secret’ of Mubarak’s power and how he plans to rule from his own royal crypt.” - Professor Tate Miller, Monterey Institute of International Studies. “Let me give you the four scariest words I can't pronounce in Arabic: Egypt after Mubarak.

This book is stunning in its revelations of Mubarak's stranglehold on every aspect of life in this glorious, long- suffering nation", - The Guardian. --Monterey Institute of International Studies It is so revealing that it exposed the corruption of the Mubarak regime and authoritarian regimes in the region", BBC World Service.
