Theran, 1979. In piena rivoluzione khomeinista, i magistrati iraniani decidono arbitrariamente di fare arrestare due dirigenti di un'industria texana di computer che fa capo al magnate Ross Perot, con l'accusa di aver incassato una commessa illecita. Nonostante la loro estraneità ai fatti, neppure il governo degli Stati Uniti riesce a ottenerne la liberazione. Prende così corpo l'idea, audace al limite della follia, di ricorrere a un commando, guidato dal colonnello Bull Simons, incaricato di far evadere i due prigionieri e di farli tornare sani e salvi in patria insieme agli altri impiegati dell'azienda rimasti in Iran. Un romanzo di Ken Follett di grande impatto emotivo e forza drammatica, una missione impossibile che da storia vera è già divenuta leggenda.
