​A retired soldier. A dying river. A mission that could save a nation-or ignite a war.​Nabil al-Rashid is a man of two pasts: a soldier whose hands are calloused by war, and a teacher who has spent decades nurturing hope in a small Iraqi village. Now, his village of Al-Qadisiyyah is dying, starved of life by the vanished Euphrates River, which has been choked upstream by a massive dam in Turkey. As his people face a slow death from thirst and despair, a former comrade arrives with an audacious, impossible plan: to lead a secret mission to breach the Atatürk Dam and free the river.​Reluctantly, Nabil must once again take up the mantle of command he swore he would leave behind. He assembles a team of veterans, engineers, and medics-ordinary people driven by desperation to an extraordinary act of defiance. Their journey will take them across hostile borders and into the heart of a fortress of concrete and steel, where they will be hunted by the intelligence agencies of multiple nations who watch their every move.​But breaching the dam is only the beginning. Their actions trigger a firestorm of international politics, turning Nabil and his team into pawns in a global power game. As Ankara brands them terrorists and the Arab world hails them as martyrs, a war of words erupts from the streets of Baghdad and Cairo to the halls of the United Nations.​Spanning from the parched fields of Iraq to the tense corridors of power, Rivers Without Borders is a gripping geopolitical thriller about tomorrow’s wars, fought today for the one resource no nation can live without: water. It is a story of sacrifice, the crushing weight of leadership, and the undying hope that even when chained, a river-and its people-will one day run free.
