“Dane opened the sliding door, raised his gun, and shot Mickey Hagan in the leg….’It was Mickey’s idea [said Dane]”’ (Gratz 148-9).

“Let’s say I do believe you, Kamran. It’s not about my gut this time, or yours. My gut told me you were right about the code--and you were” (Gratz 104).

“...they didn’t mind so much that my brother was an IRA terrorist….Got a job with the CIA as a counterterrorism analyst, and here I am: a ...very experienced counterterrorism expert” (Gratz 76).
