The Heart of Stone Hardcover – October 16, 2017 by Abe Cytryn ( (iUniverse)


Born in New York City, David Stone is orphaned at the age of twelve by the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. Haunted by memories, he is raised by his grandparents in Israel and joins the Israeli Defense Forces where he is recruited by the Mossad and assigned to a counter terrorist unit that hunts and eliminates the most ruthless of terrorists. 
On an ill-fated mission in Lebanon, Hezbollah soldiers ambush David and his unit. Many are killed, including his best friend and fiancée. Looking to again escape pain, he returns to New York and reconnects with the Jewish neighbors he knew as a child. His presence is timely since the Hasidic community is under siege by a vicious gang terrorizing the neighborhood. 
The Prime Minister and head of the Mossad eventually summon David back to Israel. The Iranian nuclear threat has become critical, leaving Israel with no choice but to act. In an elaborate scheme, David joins a CIA operative on a United Nations fact-finding mission. As a long-range sniper, David is tasked with the assassination of Iran’s top scientists and engineers. Have all his dark times and difficult tasks been leading to this, or will David’s broken heart crumble under the pressure?
