Pari Forood is the author of two novels: The Gates of Light, and The Goodwill Mission. The Gates of Light: In 1984, as the Press Secretary for Congressman Hamilton Fish, Jr., the author gets a life-changing phone call from her father. Her 17 year-old-cousin has been drafted into the Iran/Iraq war. He must flee or face an almost certain death. Joining a cast of international characters that include Pakistani black market passport dealers, members of French President Francois Mitterrand's political inner sanctum, influential Congressmen on Capitol Hill and U.S. Immigration agents, Ms. Forood uses every tool at her disposal to extricate her cousin while exploring what it means to be an American with ancestors from her country's sworn enemy. The Goodwill Mission: Based on a true story. In 1982, a young girl joins an elite chorus at her high school in South Florida. After performing at a Miami Dolphin's game, the group gets noticed by the CIA and is sent on a goodwill mission to Poland unaware of the ulterior motive of the trip -- to undermine the Polish communist regime at every opportunity. This is the story of how a group of young Americans helps to bring down the iron curtain.
