The version I read was titled IT COULD HAPPEN.
I knew the Gordons for having authored 'That Darn Cat' and a movie 'Experiment in Terror'. Here a woman enters a terrorist group as an FBI spy. Very topical, even mentioning Osama Bin Laden. A good balance of action, intrigue, and menace.
The Gordons deserve a wider audience. They are excellent writing team.
