About the Book:

The Man from Pakistan by Douglas Frantz and Catherine Collins is a compelling and eye-opening account of one of the most dangerous figures in the modern nuclear age: Abdul Qadeer Khan, the architect of Pakistan’s nuclear program. This fast-paced, intense narrative delves into the dark world of nuclear proliferation and international espionage.

The book unveils how Khan, a master of underground operations, masterminded the sale of nuclear secrets to countries like Libya, Iran, and North Korea. As the world enters the second nuclear age, the fear of a catastrophic disaster looms larger than ever, with Khan’s organization continuing to thrive, capable of creating deadly nuclear weapon kits. The story is told through the eyes of American and European officials, who are forced to confront the terrifying reality that many of the safeguards against nuclear weapons have become ineffective.

With the potential for worldwide devastation, the American authorities' surprising hesitation to take action against Khan adds to the chilling tension of the narrative. As officials begin to close in on Khan, it becomes clear that the nuclear genie is out of the bottle, posing a grave threat to global security.

A thrilling exploration of power, fear, and international intrigue, The Man from Pakistan is a riveting tale that exposes the vulnerability of the world’s safety mechanisms in the age of nuclear threats.
