The sublimely evil villain is Rashid al-Nassef, long thought dead but actually living under Iranian protection, After several years of chafing in his velvet prison he receives the go-ahead to launch what will be the most destructive and horrific terrorist attack in history.
The assault is multi-leveled in both its substance and in its actors. The martyrs who will execute the plan come from many places; a Bosnian youth designated by al-Nassef to set off the first in a series of assaults, the young Belgian woman whose fanaticism as a Christian leads her to seek the love of Mohammed, the tyrannical and abusive Albanian Muslim and his wife and child who will effect the diversionary explosion on the day of the race, the Scots lawyer seduced into Islam as a youth, and finally, al-Nassef himself who will unleash the final act of horror - a multi-layered attack on the Monaco Grand Prix intended to kill tens of thousand immediately and leave an entire nation unlivable for decades to come.
Talking about F1 related novels...I enjoyed the books by Bob Judd. Might be worth seeking out.
Also, Moltke, didn't know of Bob Judd previously. Like many long-time F1 fans, I've bemoaned the paucity of F1 fiction. Will definitely check him out.

Thanks, I’ll be sure to check it out later.
Be aware that there are duplicate publications... Phoenix/Burn...Monza/Curve... same same. Perhaps others, didn’t go through the whole list. Good reads anyway, on a popcorn-movie level.
Back to the present, I just read that Ecclestone might throw in the towel over his bribery court case in Germany. Please!
