For this story to grip, it really needs to be a lot tighter, and either focus on one chosen viewpoint or to start further back and properly (with action & tension) follow the individual backstories as separate plots only bringing them to the focal point towards the end of the book. As it stands, I'm afraid it doesn't really work.
For other tales in the same part of the world we can recommend [[The Golden Cage: Three Brothers, Three Choices, One Destiny by Shirin Ebadi]] and for political thrillers who else but the master of the craft [[A Delicate Truth by John le Carre|John Le Carré]].

|comment=I felt the Primary Objective was a great plot with a difference.I could not put it down !While throughly
researched in its detail it remain very gripping. If at times one feels individual characters could be developed this has to be a gift for an action packed thriller !
Film makers watch this space. This author is one to watch a writer of great promise and excitement .
