A riveting inside account of life and leadership at the heart of the FBI and high office in the United States of America.
The sensational number one Sunday Times bestseller about taking on the Mafia, the Clintons, and Trump.
When Donald Trump fired FBI Director James Comey on 9 May 2017, it ignited a political firestorm. The man at the centre of that storm tells his side of the story and explores his never-before-told experiences at the highest echelons of American government. He also shares what he has learned throughout his career about the nature of good, ethical leadership and how it drives sound decision-making.
From prosecuting the Mafia and Martha Stewart to helping change the Bush administration's policies on torture and electronic surveillance, overseeing the Hillary Clinton email investigation as well as ties between the Trump campaign and Russia, Comey has been involved in some of the most consequential cases and policies of recent history. A Higher Loyalty is a fascinating portrait of leadership, patriotism, and the vital importance of shaping a culture that puts the truth first.
'Comey has quite a story to tell - and that's even before we get to the Clinton and Trump chapters' Jonathan Freedland, Guardian
'A powerful argument for principled leadership' The Economist
Trump offends all that Comey claims to hold dear about power in America and the values and institutions which merit his loyalty. Trump has shot back, but Comey has landed a stinger.
