20 November, 1979: as morning prayers began, hundreds of hardline Islamist gunmen, armed with rifles smuggled in coffins, stormed the Grand Mosque in Mecca. This work takes us through one of the momentous events in history, interviewing many participants in the siege and reveals the truth about the first operation of modern global jihad.
