Publisher's Note The acclaimed ABC-TV journalist and the leading authority on Osama bin Laden present a comprehensive investigation into the terrorist cells involved in the September 11th attacks.
Industry Reviews "John Miller and Michael Stone, distinguished investigative reporters, with the help of the editor Chris Mitchell, bring high credibility to this streetwise, gritty police procedural....In those parts of the book that are told in Miller's voice he always seems to be tucking into late-night gnocchi with his tough-talking detective pals when all their beepers go off, signaling another chapter in the terrorist hunt. As a result, THE CELL crackles like a police radio, racing along with tabloid urgency, making it a frisky but important addition to the growing literature on Al Qaeda." New York Times Book Review - Geoffrey Wheatcroft (09/08/2002)
