About this book

Barry Meier investigates the business of private intelligence gathering and its influence on corporations, journalism and politics. Beginning with an attempt to meet Christopher Steele, he examines operatives hired to gather damaging information about powerful clients' opponents. The account connects the Steele dossier with a wider industry whose work increasingly shapes public events while remaining difficult to scrutinize.
