What is the book about?
It's a commentary on what's happening in the world today. No country can say that they are free from terrorism. And for this, I blame the policies former US President Georgeu00a0 W Bush put into action with regard to Iraq and Afghanistan. I don't want to give away the plot, but the story starts when Bush lands in Baghdad and is kidnapped by five men. These men take him to a secluded location and that's when the drama unfolds. I plan to launch it in the first week of February.
What prompted you to write this story?
I remember clearly, it was the day Saddam was hanged. And whatever Saddam did, I think Bush made a hero out of him. A friend and I were watching the news, and we started building a story, saying what would happen if Bush got kidnapped. I thought it was an interesting idea, and started working on the book.
