If every story was told as this one, I would read three books a day.

Really great. Only wish that I had a sense of how much information the FBI, CIA, etc go through in a day, week or year- the narrative is definitely "in hindsight, this and this and this were missed" but those things would be piled up with the mountains of information they must go through to figure out what threats are real.

Research put into this book is incredible. Storytelling is spot on, and the argument is laid out clearly and without too much agitation. What a treat! Absolute must-read for anyone interested in the topic.
