New York: St Martin's, (2019). First edition - A highly praised book by this award winning journalist - "Rage-inducing, impeccably researched, and timely...an absolute must-read."(Booklist) A "clarion call for us to stand and take notice that our Constitution is being assailed, one amendment at a time. Kirby's meticulous research and fine writing come alive with stories of real people whose liberties and even lives have been taken by bad actors cloaked in governmental authority. As much as it pains me - a third generation federal prosecutor and daughter of an FBI agent - to read Kirby's reporting, his book reveals painful truths that Americans ignore at their peril." (Lis Wiehl, author and former federal prosecutor) Publisher's material tipped in. Notes. xvi 387 pp.
