Aprašymas

From the conspiracy world - where pigs can fly, written in the early 1990s, this book may be a progenitor of the species

Conspiracy book aficionados will applaud the reappearance of Trail of the Octopus. If not perhaps the Mother of the genre, it is certainly a classic, with all of the established elements: Iran, Iraq, Libya, Cypress, DEA, CIA, DIA, Justice Dept., drugs trafficking, Contras, Pan Am, Lockerbie, Bin Ladin, strange deaths, finger-pointing, perjury, media all the elements that have come to define the species.Curiously, the expression "conspiracy theory" is itself the subject of a conspiracy theory, which claims the term was popularized by the CIAin order to discredit conspiratorial believers.Brought back to life by Steve Berry's 2013 novel The King's Deception, this edition is faithful to the authors' intent, it has corrected some typos and errors. It contains 8 illustrations, 16 documents, and an index.
