Synopses & Reviews
Review
"The book is full of new information, and, to the authors' credit, even where they're unsure of the answer, they soberly explore all the possibilities." Publishers Weekly
Review
"The authors, in ablly untangling a tale with endless twists and a dizzying cast of characters, illuminate issues far larger than the fate of the man at the center of this case. If anyone wonders about the shocking failure of intelligence that preceded Spet. 11, the Lee case gives fair warning." The New York Times Book Review
