The Last Days by Joel C. Rosenberg

The Last Days (Political Thrillers Series #2) - President MacPherson is recovering from his injuries as is Jon Bennett. Now that the Iraq war is over and there is an interim government in place, the US State Department has turned its efforts to the “oil for peace” plan. Secretary of State Tucker Paine is meeting with Yasser Arafat. As they meet, Arafat’s security’s chief does a suicide bombing which starts a war in the Gaza strip. This traps Bennett and Erin McCoy and their team in the Gaza Station.

I am enjoying these action packed books that are very revealing of the politics of the various nations involved in the Middle East. There’s no vulgarity or sex either.
