    Question Song Suggestion for a Book Trailer?

    Okay, everyone, I need your help!

    After a year and a half of work, my novel was published in December! (excited/proud happy dance here) Now I'm trying to make a "book trailer" video to advertise the book, and I need help finding music for it.

    "No Safe Place" is a political thriller about Homeland Security agents working to bring down a radical terrorist organization whose sleeper cells are carrying out attacks across the United States. Rather than conventional large-scale attacks and nuclear threats, Ansar Inshallah's attacks are personal and close to home, carried out by sleeper agents hidden in plain sight, and designed to cause widespread paranoia and fear. (Think along the lines of something from "24"/Jack Bauer!)

    I am looking for dramatic instrumental music, maybe something with a Middle-Eastern flair, that I can use along with the photos in the video.

    Nothing has really stood out to me yet, so I thought I would see if anyone else has any suggestions!

    Thanks for the suggestions! I ended up using 2 songs from the "Prince of Persia" soundtrack. Some great music there! I really like that "Pandora" song; wasn't able to use it in these videos, but I added it to my iPod!

    Here are the videos that I made. What do you think of them?

    Thanks again for the help - you helped me finish these videos, AND discover some great new music for my iPod! :-)
