From the award-winning, New York Times bestselling author, Patrick Radden Keefe, comes a collection of twelve riveting stories of fraud and intrigue. The book brings together some of his most famous articles from the New Yorker, exploring the complexities of crime and corruption, as well as secrets and lies.
Keefe examines cases such as the counterfeiting of $150,000 worth of vintage wine, analyzes whether a whistleblower who revealed money laundering at a Swiss bank is a hero or a liar, spends time in Vietnam with Anthony Bourdain, and chronicles the effort to overthrow a cheerful international black-market arms dealer, as well as profiling a passionate death penalty lawyer representing the "worst of the worst."
The appearance of Keefe's byline in the New Yorker is always an event. In this volume, readers can see how his work composes an ever-captivating yet deeply human portrait of criminals and con artists, as well as those who stand against them.
