Just finished Countdown bin Laden (Chris Wallace and Mitch Weiss). This an accounting of 247 days from when Leon Panetta, director of CIA was first told about the 3 story compound in Abbottabad Pakistan to the actual raid and the aftermath. A friend lent the book to me to read and I delayed for quite awhile, thinking its old news and I knew enough about it already. It turned out to be just the opposite, very interesting and informative. I am anything but a big reader but I'm glad that I made an exception for this. Many interesting stories and details that you probably never heard before.
