Read a few on holiday earlier this month.
Standout was "Farewell Kabul" by Christina Lamb. Not an easy read, concentration required, but amazing insight into the conflict in Afghanistan and the way that Pakistan exploit the economic aid made available to them by the Americans and the UK.

Supposed to be ideal for fans of "I Am Pilgrim" by Terry Hayes (Manc & ED take note). About 40% in and starting to get going. Will give you a more detailed recommendation once I'm finished.
