"Enemies Within is a revelatory look at America's counterterrorism measures. The authors' real-life domestic spy story indicates that many of our strategies aren't even close to being successful. Six months after 9/11, the New York police commissioner initiated an audacious antiterrorist plan: the NYPD dispatched a vast network of undercover officers and informants into Muslim neighborhoods to eavesdrop on conversations in mosques and community centers. These shady tactics proved fruitless. Through the harrowing tick-tock narrative of forty-eight hours in 2009, the NYPD and the FBI track suspected terrorist Najibullah Zazi as he makes his way to New York to launch an attack."
