Comment rester loyal envers les valeurs que vous avez défendues toute votre vie, même quand cette loyauté peut entraîner votre perte ? Le jour où Donald Trump a congédié James Comey, alors directeur du FBI, en mai 2017, il a déclenché un gigantesque incendie politique. Celui qui s'est retrouvé au coeur des flammes a gardé le silence - jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Dans ce livre très attendu, l'ancien patron du FBI raconte pour la première fois le rôle historique qu'il a joué lors de l'élection présidentielle de 2016.
Tout au long de sa carrière, il s'est illustré en prenant des décisions cruciales dans les affaires criminelles les plus controversées, qu'il s'agisse des conflits avec la mafia, de la lutte contre le terrorisme après les attentats du 11 septembre, des positions de Dick Cheney et George Bush sur la torture ou de l'enquête sur les courriels classifiés d'Hillary Clinton durant les derniers mois de l'administration Obama.
Mais surtout James Comey revient en détail sur ses différentes rencontres avec le président Donald Trump à qui il a refusé les gages de "loyauté" qui lui étaient demandés - un geste qui lui a coûté très cher. Tout au long de cet ouvrage exceptionnel, fourmillant de révélations, il témoigne de l'importance vitale qu'il y a pour tous les dirigeants comme pour chaque citoyen à encourager une culture qui place la vérité au sommet de leur échelle de valeurs.

PREORDER JAMES COMEY'S GRIPPING NEW LEGAL THRILLER, WESTPORT, NOW! 'The plot goes like a train . . . vivid and compelling' Ian Rankin One chance to crack the case. A million ways to lose. Federal prosecutor Nora Carleton has spent years building a case against a powerful New York mobster. She finally has a star witness whose testimony will lock the defendant away for good. But the courtroom is an unpredictable place. While the killing of a disgraced former governor appears unconnected to the trial, the fallout from his death means a guilty verdict hangs in the balance. Desperate to stop the mobster walking free, Nora investigates the darker side of the city to find out how everything connects. The more she uncovers, the deeper the corruption runs. And Nora knows better than most that the truth is a fragile thing - especially in court. Drawing on James Comey's thirty years in federal law enforcement, Central Park West is a fast-paced thriller, bursting with tension and authenticity - perfect for fans of John Grisham. Reviews for Central Park West 'An accomplished debut.' Sunday Times 'A great read. Brimming with been-there-done-that authority... James Comey knows this world like the back of his hand. And he delivers it with the addictive style of an expert storyteller.' Michael Connelly 'A masterful blend of legal thriller, police procedural and psychological drama.' Jeffery Deaver 'A gripping plot, and breathless pacing combine for a truly outstanding debut - one that announces a bold new talent in the mystery genre.'
