About this listen
A CIA postmortem meeting reopens the buried story of Nadim Mansour — a gifted Lebanese-American economist who rose from a New Jersey childhood to the heart of Wall Street. After his father is murdered over secret hawala connections, Nadim’s life spirals into a collision course with geopolitics, culminating in his wrongful arrest after 9/11 and his disappearance into the black sites of the U.S. detention system.
As the agency pieces together his past, they uncover two critical truths:
Nadim learned far more in Guantánamo than anyone realized… and his estranged wife, Miriam, may not be who she claimed to be.
Episode 1 sets the stage for a global financial thriller where loyalty is fragile, trust is weaponized, and the world’s oldest money network becomes the seed of a new kind of invisible war.
This podcast is based in the novel Hawala, available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G4N9NRMK
