Jihad Joe

Islamic terrorists have been killing and destroying targets in Brooklyn and Manhattan. They attack a bookstore where a reporter, Zed Nill, is working on a novel. They take him hostage to a safe house in upstate New York and demand the release of three Gitmo prisoners in exchange for his life. If the President refuses to release the prisoners, as is the protocol, Zed is to be beheaded the next day.
His captor, Yusuf Ali, is assigned to the bloody chore, which is to be shown on YouTube. He is guarding Zed and is awaiting word from his terrorist partners when to proceed. In order to come away from this ordeal with his head intact, Zed must convince Yusuf that Islamic jihad is a fraud by using his knowledge of Islamic scripture to refute what Yusuf has been taught all of his life about the religion of peace.
Yusuf is torn and not easily convinced, and the clock is ticking.
