A dramatic insider account by the former deputy director of the FBI detailing how law enforcement battles terror threats, Russian crime, and attacks by the White House itself on the US Constitution.
Andrew G. McCabe served as deputy director of the FBI from February 2016 to January 2018. He began his career at the FBI in 1996, working first as a street agent on the Eurasian Organized Crime Task Force, and eventually as its supervisor. Later, he led the FBI's Counterterrorism Division, the National Security Branch, and the Washington Field Office, and was the first director of the High-Value Detainee Interrogation Group. He lives in Virginia with his wife Jill, their two children, and a dog.
"A rapid-fire G-man memoir...The book is patriotic and oddly
stirring." - Dwight Garner, The New York Times Book Review
"Insightful...provocative...McCabe is a keen observer of detail." -
The Washington Post
"McCabe's portrait of the Trump administration and of the president
himself is as alarming as any we have seen so far -- including
those of journalists such as Bob Woodward and former staff such as
Cliff Sims." - NPR
"The account is laced with sharp, amusing characterizations...fans
of police procedurals will love his descriptions of FBI culture,
and critics of the current administration will find his
denouncements satisfying. This is one of the better Trump-related
tell-alls." - Publishers Weekly
"McCabe's book speaks with bracing directness about what was going
on and why it matters...anyone who has followed Trump will
recognize the accuracy of the portrayal of him in The Threat. -
Jeffrey Toobin, The New Yorker
