“Don’t you know how close we are, you fool? Don’t you know how pious we must be? He’s coming at any moment. We must be ready.” —From The Twelfth Imam


As the apocalyptic leaders of Iran call for the annihilation of Israel and the U.S., CIA operative David Shirazi is sent into Tehran with one objective: use all means necessary to disrupt Iran’s nuclear weapons program—without leaving American fingerprints, and without triggering a regional war. At extreme personal risk, Shirazi undertakes his assignment.

A native Farsi speaker whose family escaped from Iran in 1979, he couldn’t be better prepared for the mission. But none of his training has prepared Shirazi for what will happen next. An obscure religious cleric is suddenly hailed throughout the region as the Islamic messiah known as the Mahdi or the Twelfth Imam. News of his miracles, healings, signs, and wonders spreads like wildfire, as do rumors of a new and horrific war.

With the prophecy of the Twelfth Imam seemingly fulfilled, Iran’s leaders prepare to strike Israel and bring about the End of Days. Shirazi must take action, but the clock is ticking.

About The Author: 

Joel C. Rosenberg is a New York Times bestselling author of fifteen novels and five nonfiction books with nearly 5 million copies in print.

He has marked his place among today's top fact-based fiction authors, and U.S. News and World Report hailed him as a "modern-day Nostradamus." His newest novel, The Jerusalem Assassin, releases March 17.

Joel regularly speaks with leaders around the world about geopolitical and religious freedom issues. In the last two years alone, he has met face-to-face with President Donald Trump, Vice President Mike Pence, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Jordanian King Abdullah II, Egyptian president el-Sisi, the crown prince of Abu Dhabi, and the crown prince of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

His novels have been read by Vice President Pence, Secretary of State Pompeo, former President George W. Bush, former CIA director Porter Goss, former senior White House foreign policy advisor Jason Greenblatt, former Delta Force commander Jerry Boykin, Jordanian King Abdullah II, and dozens of members of the U.S. House and Senate, among other national and world leaders, generals, and intelligence officials.

He has appeared on hundreds of radio and TV programs in the U.S., Canada, and around the world and has been profiled by the New York Times, the Washington Times, and the Jerusalem Post.

A well-known evangelical in the U.S., he is the founder and chairman of The Joshua Fund, a nonprofit educational and humanitarian relief organization dedicated to educating and mobilizing Christians to "bless Israel and her neighbors in the name of Jesus, according to Genesis 12:1-3." New York Times Magazine recently called Joel "a powerful force in the evangelical movement."

Rosenberg is the grandson of Orthodox Jews who escaped czarist Russia in the early 1900s and comes from a Jewish background on his father's side and a Gentile background on his mother's side. He and his wife, Lynn, are dual U.S.-Israeli citizens. They made aliyah in 2014 and live with their sons in Jerusalem, Israel.
