From the prize-winning, New York Times bestselling author of SAY NOTHING and EMPIRE OF PAIN, X enthralling stories of misbehavior and skullduggery by one of the most decorated journalists of our timeI read everything he writes. Every time he writes a book, I read it. Every time he writes an article, I read it … he's a national treasure.- Rachel Maddow, host of MSNBC's The Rachel Maddow Show and author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Blowout Patrick Radden Keefe has garnered prizes ranging from National Magazine Awards to the Orwell Prize for (something nonfiction) to the National Book Critics Circle Award for his meticulously-reported, hypnotically-engaging work on the many ways people behave badly. Keefe brilliantly chronicles the surprisingly corporate business practices of narcotraffickers, explores the intricacies of forging $150,000 vintage wines, tells the fate of a whistle-blower who dared to expose money laundering at a Swiss bank, and profiles a the charmed life of a cheerful international black market arms merchant, among other bravura works of literary journalism. The appearance of his byline in The New Yorker is always an event, and collected here for the first time readers can see his work forms an always enthralling but deeply human portrait of criminals and rascals, but also those who stand up against them.
