Review

"THE SIEGE's real selling point is how White paints three wounded people trying to stop a crisis that seems almost to defy description. And that crisis, agonizingly unpredictable and terrifically paced, is such a doozy that it redeems the rest of the novel's flaws."

"Brilliantly conceived and executed, this intellectually challenging and provocative thriller brings home the lesson that 9/11 might have been a mere prelude to more sophisticated assaults." (starred review)

Publisher's note

As a lovely weekend approaches on the Yale campus it appears that a number of studentsa "including the sons of both the secretary of the army and newest Supreme Court justicea "may have
gone missing. Kidnapping? Terrorism? The authorities arena (TM)t sure. But the high-profile disappearances draw the attention of the CIA
and the FBI a (TM)s vaunted Hostage Rescue Team. Attention quickly focuses on the fortresslike tomb of one of Yalea (TM)s secret societies.
Suspended Boulder police detective Sam Purdy soon finds himself in New Haven, where he is quickly snared by an unlikely pair of Feds: FBI agent Christopher Poe and CIA analyst Deirdre Drake.
Sam, Poe, and Dee join together, desperately trying to solve the riddle of what is going on inside the windowless stone tomb on the edge of campus.
The clock is pounding in their ears. The unknown enemy is playing by no known rules...is making no demands...is refusing to communicate with the hostage negotiator...is somehow anticipating
every FBI move...is completely unconcerned about getting away...
And...is sending students, one by one, out of the buildinga (TM)s front door to die.

The popular character Dr. Alan Gregory takes a backseat as his longtime friend, suspended Boulder police detective Sam Purdy, investigates a number of high-profile disappearances at Yale University that may have ties to a campus secret society. Simultaneous.

Annotation

Demanding no ransom, making no conditions for their escape or the release of their hostages, some frighteningly silent group of terrorists has taken over the headquarters of one of Yale University's elite secret societies. But the official tactics of school administrators and federal agents prove futile against the siege that has an unknown number of students held captive. Three renegade agents--suspended Boulder detective Sam Purdy, CIA analyst Deirdre Drake, and FBI man Christopher Poe--take matters into their own hands in Stephen White's alarmingly timely thriller.
