“Eamon Javers has produced a remarkable book about the secret world of business warfare—a world filled with corporate spies and covert ops and skullduggery… An important book that has the added pleasure of reading like a spy novel.” —David Grann, author of
The Lost City of Z
Award-winning reporter Eamon Javers’s

is, like
Legacy of Ashes
and
Blackwater
, a first rate political thriller that also just happens to be true.
