Upon completion of his military service, Ross was approached by the Israeli intelligence agency and after a set of tests (including a harsh interrogation by Israeli police, all set up), he joins. Ross shares with his readers a number of the secret operations he participated in as a Mossad warrior, including the beating up of Iranian agent in South Africa, an assassination that originated in Turkey, joint work with the CIA to capture Al-Qaeda agents in Azerbaijan and many others.
