State Of Terror Book Summary
After a tumultuous period in American politics, a new administration has just been sworn in, and to everyone’s surprise the president chooses a political enemy for the vital position of secretary of state.
There is no love lost between the president of the United States and Ellen Adams, his new secretary of state. But it’s a canny move on the part of the president. With this appointment, he silences one of his harshest critics, since taking the job means Adams must step down as head of her multinational media conglomerate.
As the new president addresses Congress for the first time, with Secretary Adams in attendance, Anahita Dahir, a young foreign service officer (FSO) on the Pakistan desk at the State Department, receives a baffling text from an anonymous source. Too late, she realizes the message was a hastily coded warning.
What begins as a series of apparent terrorist attacks is revealed to be the beginning of an international chess game involving the volatile and Byzantine politics of Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iran; the race to develop nuclear weapons in the region; the Russian mob; a burgeoning rogue terrorist organization; and an American government set back on its heels in the international arena.
As the horrifying scale of the threat becomes clear, Secretary Adams and her team realize it has been carefully planned to take advantage of four years of an American government out of touch with international affairs, out of practice with diplomacy, and out of powerin the places where it counts the most. To defeat such an intricate, carefully constructed conspiracy, it will take the skills of a unique team: a passionate young FSO; a dedicated journalist; and a smart, determined, but as yet untested new secretary of state.

Like many stories of this type, this one by Louise Penny and Hillary Clinton has more than a ring of truth owing from the experience of a former Secretary of State in the Obama administration. While the characters are fictional they seem more than plausible within a story demonstrated by the last few years to have have more truth than fiction.

Given the state of the world right now, I wasn’t ready to revisit Islamic terrorism–but this thriller was recommended, and it is so much more encompassing than I expected. This is hundreds of pages of faintly disguised snark from Hillary Clinton on the causes and effects of current American political unrest, with a sly acknowledgment of the (now trending) Twitter tag PedoPutin.
Twenty pages into the story, I was engaged. The plot is complex and twisty enough to satisfy any reader and even throws in a bittersweet romance. The characters are not stereotypical (for the most part, and, in fact, the protagonist’s counselor and best friend is a feisty ex-teacher whose conversations glitter with literary and grammatical jokes.
I will say that Ms. Clinton and Ms. Penny might have consulted an expert on the presentation of fight scenes and the slow twisting of the knife as it were, but otherwise, I was thrilled to be introduced by an absolute expert to the inner circle of our government and the frantic flight schedule of a Secretary of State.
Buy or borrow this novel and read it (especially if you’re not a fan of autobiography or biography). It’s a cogent allegorical study of how our politics and the world order have come to this sorry pass.
5.0 out of 5 stars WOW – Excellent thriller!

It took me awhile to warm to the style of the book. It hopped around from one story line to the next and I felt like I had whiplash. But after a few chapters, the plot became more fluid and I became hooked. The relationship between Ellen and Betsy was so well developed, it did not surprise me that it was patterned after a real friendship – a beautiful friendship. I stayed up way too late several nights to read it and I highly recommend it.
