#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER * INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Following Chris Wallace's "riveting" (The New York Times) and "propulsive" (Time) first book Countdown 1945 comes a deeply reported, revelatory, and thrillingly told account of the final months of the hunt for Osama bin Laden.

On August 27, 2010, three CIA officers ask for a private meeting with CIA Director Leon Panetta. During that secret session, they tell Panetta that agents have tracked a courier with deep Al Qaeda ties to a three-story house at the end of a dead-end street in Abbottabad, Pakistan. But they say it's more than a house--it's a heavily protected fortress. No one in the meeting says the name bin Laden. They don't have to. Everyone understands that finally, after nearly a decade, maybe, just maybe, they've found the world's most wanted man.


In Countdown bin Laden, celebrated journalist and anchor of Fox News Sunday Chris Wallace delivers a thrilling new account of the final eight months of intelligence gathering, national security strategizing, and meticulous military planning that leads to the climactic mission when SEAL Team Six closes in on its target.

The book delivers new information collected from Wallace's in-depth interviews with more than a dozen central figures, including Admiral William H. McRaven--leader of the operation in Pakistan--as well as CIA Director Panetta, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, Defense Secretary Robert Gates, National Security Advisor Tom Donilon, and two members of SEAL Team Six who participate in the raid, including the special operator who kills Osama bin Laden. Wallace also brings to life the human elements of this story, talking to families who lost loved ones on 9/11, sharing what relatives of SEAL Team Six went through, and bringing us inside the tense Situation Room during the raid.

Published on the twentieth anniversary of 9/11, Countdown bin Laden is a historical thriller filled with intrigue, cinematic action, and fresh reporting about the race to apprehend and bring to justice the mastermind of the most consequential terrorist attack in American history.

Caviar and Champagne look for a hot dog and beer price!!
Color: Black (Stretch Fabric), Size: Large
At this point in my life, my days of spending close to $1K for a suit are over. Now, more worried about saving enough money for retirement AND my two kids' college funds. So when I was invited to a "black tie affair" I thought, "Crap. I don't own a tuxedo and will have to rent." Calling my local tux rental shop, I was SHOCKED at how much a one-night rental would cost (average $150/night - yes, it's been over 20 plus years since I had to rent a tux but wow)! So my wife suggested I look on Amazon and see if there was something that might work. After seeing the reviews for the YND Slim Fit tuxedo, I decided to take a chance. And boy, am I glad I did!! I have been thoroughly impressed. The value for money is outstanding—this suit offers a high-end look and impeccable fit at a fraction of the cost compared to suits 10 times its price. The suit exudes sophistication and style, making a powerful statement. The attention to detail in design is evident, and the finish is almost on par with luxury suits that come with a hefty price tag. The fit is nicely tailored for an "off-the-rack" suit, not too boxy or not too "slim" (I'm 6'0, 190lbs, and purchased the 'Large'). The suit highlights the best features while providing optimum comfort. In summary, this suit is a true gem, offering exceptional value, a remarkable look, a superb fit, and style that rivals much more expensive options. Highly recommended for those seeking quality without breaking the bank.

Very nice suit! Pay attention to the measurements and sizing! It worked out great for a prom suit. It did come with a vest, tie and cuff links also.

Gorgeous But Size Up
Color: Burgundy (Stretch Fabric), Size: Small
The suit has a beautiful, rich burgundy color — truly eye‑catching and elegant. Unfortunately, the fit was a major issue. I recommend sizing up at least one size, especially if you have fuller thighs or glutes. The pants were very tight in the thigh and buttocks area, the vest didn’t cover the lower hip area, and the jacket sleeves ran short with a tight fit in the shoulders. Overall, the small felt more like a youth small rather than an adult small. Our set also did not include the pocket square as advertised, though it did come with a white dress shirt and a mini black tie with a matching pocket square. The material itself felt okay — not bad, but not great. We really wanted to love this suit because the color is gorgeous, but due to the sizing inconsistencies and missing item, we couldn’t keep it.
