Much time was spent in research of all participants of the war, rules of conduct of the military personnel, understanding the Muslim culture, allowing Carole to publish: Circle of Deception. It's an adventure of war battles, terrorism, kidnapping, as well as an underlining love story which takes the reader to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Switzerland and Washington, DC.
