Kirkus Reviews "A skillful combination of antiterrorism fireworks with perceptive analysis of our strategies." Huntington News "Outstanding…Regardless of your personal views on the so-called "War on Terror" "Find, Fix, Finish" is a comprehensive source book on the facts of terror attacks and how many such attacks were foiled by law enforcement and security agencies."

Synopsis
On 9/11 the United States had no strategy to deal with terrorism and were caught largely unprepared; a decade later the US had created a new, effective approach to counter-terrorism. It is called: Find, Fix Finish, and it was the strategy used to eliminate Osama Bin Laden. This is the inside story of how it evolved, the key players and vital strikes that made it work., On 9/11 the U.S. had effectively no counterterrorism doctrine. Fast forward ten years: Osama bin Laden is dead; al Qaeda is organizationally ruined and pinned in the tribal areas of Pakistan and Afghanistan; there has been no major attack on American soil; and while there has been at least one instance of a massive planned attack, it was crushed by the greatest international collaboration of intelligence services seen since the end of the Cold War. It's been a remarkable transformation. Aki Peritz and Eric Rosenbach have experienced first-hand the monumental strategy changes in our country's counterterrorism strategy within the intelligence, defense, and political communities. In this book, they show how America learned to be very good at taking on the terrorists, often one at a time, in ever more lethally incisive operations. They offer new details behind some headlines from the last decade. They are frank about the mistakes that have been made. And they explain how a concept coined by General Grant during the Civil War has been reinvented in the age of satellite technology to manage a globally distributed foe, allowing the U.S. to find, fix, and finish its enemies., On 9/11 the U.S. had effectively no counterterrorism doctrine.
