41 SECONDS TO FREEDOM:AN INSIDER’S ACCOUNT OF THE LIMA HOSTAGE CRISIS,1996-97
Book ID/图书代码： 01240007B12074
English Summary/英文概要： On December 18, 1996, more than six hundred VIPs were attending the birthday party of the Japanese ambassador to Peru at his elegant residence. Political figures, business leaders, and socialites mingled in a tented pavilion on expansive grounds. Then, without warning, fourteen masked, heavily armed figures burst in.
Member of the Tupac Amaru Revolutionary Movement(MRTA), a deadly Cuban-influenced band of insurgents, the terrorists demanded the release of four hundred of their comrades from prison---or they would kill all the hostages. The event inspired a media frenzy---especially when Peru’s president, Alberto Fujimori, refused to negotiate.
What the public didn’t know was that Fujimori had immediately begun planning a military assault and its success would depend on the help of one particular party guest.
41 Seconds to Freedom is Giampietri’s inside account of the unnerving ordeal and its resolution through heroism and sheer audacity. Here he tells how he used his pager to reveal to the commandos outside the terrorists’ positions, habits, and tactics; how one young female terrorist became infatuated with a Japanese hostage---with fateful consequences; how a Red Cross employee was discovered to be in league with the MRTA; and how the rescue took all of 41 seconds from start to finish.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 1996年12月18日，一千六百多位重要贵宾被邀请参加日本驻秘鲁大使的生日诞辰宴会。政治界中举足轻重的大人物们，商业领导人，社交人士等都集中在一个临时搭建的馆内。接着，在没有任何预兆、警告的情况下，一百四十名脸带面具、全副武装的暴徒突然闯进馆内。
这群暴徒是图帕克阿马鲁革命运动组织的成员，在古巴有着重要影响力，这群恐怖分子要求释放他们在监狱中的同党——不然他们将杀光所有的人质。尤其在秘鲁总统Alberto Fujimori拒绝谈判后，整起事件更被媒体炒作得沸沸扬扬。
公众所不知道的是Fujimori其实立刻计划了一个聪明的突击方案，而其的大获成功要归功于宴会中一个特别宾客的帮忙。
秘鲁副总统Giampietri在本书中叙述了当时严峻的局势，还有最后含有英雄主义意味和大胆的的解决方案。在书中他讲述了他是如何向外部的突击队员透露歹徒的方位，习惯和作案手法；其中一个年轻的的恐怖分子是如何命运般迷恋上当时的一个日本人质；他们是如何发现一个红十字员工为图帕克阿马鲁革命运动组织通风报信的；还有营救行动是如何从头到尾只花了41秒。
