Synopsis
"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 "One of the best non-fiction books of the year, a monument of fourth-level research and fact-searching." -- Los Angeles Times " This book will curl your hair with its revelations and the names it names. A landmark book in its field of investigative reporting." --John Barkham Reviews "Hougan is a superb storyteller and the pages teem with unforgettable characters. Admirable." -- The Washington Post "Hougan is exhilarating on the mystique of spooks." -- The New York Review of Book, "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.

    The book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.
