Resumen del Editor

Ali Hassan, an Egyptian-American businessman in Brooklyn, reveals a secret past of activism and heartbreak in an attempt to keep his hot-headed teenaged grandson from making the greatest mistake of his life. In a journey that begins amid the high-wattage glamour of the sets of Cecil B. DeMille’s The Ten Commandments and leads to the deserts of Cairo and beyond, Ali describes how he landed a dream job as DeMille’s personal assistant and then found himself enmeshed in events that changed the course of history.

It’s a tale that Ali has kept hidden most of his life. But now there’s an urgent reason to share it: his beloved American grandson, Alex, has run off to Syria to become a holy warrior. Alex says this journey is his destiny. Ali understands better than Alex believes and knows that rescuing Alex is up to him—because Ali knows how this movie can end. With equal parts suspense, history, and family drama, Picture in the Sand is a mesmerizing story about faith, family, and the enduring power of storytelling.

Well narrated and worth the read

Excellent read. The storyline itself is fairly linear - which leads to the appeal of the book. You don’t wander off on numerous side stories and plots which forces the writer to keep the main characters fresh and interesting.

I felt the narrator did an incredible job. Great accents and easily identifiable characters.

Recommend!

A superb story told by a gifted writer read by a fantastic performer.

I purchased the Audible version yesterday morning. Then I spent the next 9 hours absolutely enthralled on a long flight home - extraordinary, superb!

Sean Rohani did a great job bringing the story to life.

Interesting story well told using the Ten Commandments and the Egyptian/ Israeli conflict as back drops

Very inciteful. very well written. This is a story that is hard to tell in a world that is/ was so conflicted
