By Elazar Halevi Dana (Author)
When Guy, Roy and Noam are accepted for the youth delegation to the UN Headquarters in New York, no one understands why. Guy, the computer genius of the class, but Noam?
This strange freak?
And why did they choose Roy?
He may excel in sports and is a karate champion, but he hardly knows English!
Only one man knows very well why these three children were chosen for the expedition.
This man is Hanan Samaritan, a senior official at Mossad, who decided to recruit them for his help.
Ahmed Abu Bashir, the head of a global terrorist organization, is about to arrive in Manhattan for a visit to the United Nations, and Hanan thinks this is a one-time opportunity to go there and hack into his computer.
But the Israeli institution is not allowed to operate in the United States.
Hanan decides, against all logic and without telling anyone, that only the children will be able to carry out the task.
The three children go through grueling training to prepare them for the sophisticated and dangerous operation.
They travel to Manhattan, and at first the operation seems to be progressing well, but then everything starts to go wrong...
Operation Manhattan - the first book in the secret mission series - is a breathtaking espionage thriller, which brings readers together with the intriguing world of the intelligence services, a world full of danger, determination and courage.
Dana Elazar-Halevi, translator and book editor, lives in Tel Aviv with her husband and two children. "Operation Manhattan" is her first book.
