“Probably the most eye-opening and engrossing exposé to date of the bizarre ‘power games’ played by multinational corporations and tycoons.” —Publishers Weekly
A classic of investigative reporting, Spooks is a treasure trove of who-shot-who research on the metastasis of the US intelligence community, whose practices and personnel have engulfed the larger society. Teeming with tales of wiremen, hitmen, and mobsters; crooked politicians and corrupt cops going about their business of regime-change, union-busting, wiretapping, money laundering, and industrial espionage, read about:
• Richard Nixon’s “Mission Impossible” war on Aristotle Onassis
• Not-so-deep-fake porno films starring the CIA’s enemies
• The Robert Vesco heist, targeting billions in numbered Swiss accounts
• Robert Maheu and the kidnapping of billionaire Howard Hughes
• The murder-for-hire of a Columbia University professor
• Bobby Kennedy’s archipelago of private intelligence agencies—Intertel and the “Five I’s”
• “The Friendly Ghost” and Nixon’s secret account in the offshore Castle Bank & Trust
