Trojan Horse in the Belly of the Beast Trilogy

This is the first book in the trilogy, The Trojan Horse in the Belly of the Beast, by Carl Douglass. The two young mental giants who dominate this trilogy could not have come from more different backgrounds if they had been born on separate planets. Though they come from the ends of the earth, the similarities between the two geniuses-math prodigies-are striking and of serious import to the deputy director of the defense intelligence agency of the United States. His task is to undermine and to interdict the secret Iranian project to build nuclear weapons of mass destruction--Project Jahannam Adur [Hell's Fire]. The effort to subvert the planned Iranian holocaust will eventually take more than a decade and a terrible amount of sacrifice, but it could avert a war with the potential to wreak more havoc and loss that WW I and II combined.

Dancing with the Devil is the second book in the trilogy, The Trojan Horse in the Belly of the Beast, by Carl Douglass. The determined senior officials of the Iranian government present their progress to the Supreme Leader who is highly displeased with the effort and the accomplishment. He urges them to create a nuclear weapon with promises and veiled threats. The members of the U.S. ultrasecret Iran Nuclear Weapons Interdiction Project meet to find a way-any way-to prevent the religious extremists from getting a bomb. The two opposing forces drive inexorably towards an ultimate crisis, and Dr. Afsoon Mouradipour and Dr. Gideon Emmanuel Rothsberger are caught in the vortex of the whirlwind created by the two polar opposite forces converging on them. Despite the obstacles and the improbability of success, Afsoon agrees to become the Trojan Horse; and Gideon falls in love.

The carefully crafted projects and deep secrets of the Islamic Republic of Iran and their opponents in the Iran Nuclear Weapons Interdiction Project each bring their best and their worst to fruition in this the final book in the Trojan Horse in the Belly of the Beast Trilogy. Both sides are playing an extremely expensive and dangerous game with apocalypse or economic ruin as real consequences. Cyber war is waged with a vengeance, but Afsoon and Gideon hold strategic advantages. The question is whether or not their elaborate plan will succeed in time to prevent the impending holocaust. The answer to that existential reality will depend upon whether or not Afsoon can survive.
