They considered themselves masters of the secret. But behind the veil of secrecy lurked anarchy, absurdity, and fear.

"CIA: A History of Shame" is more than just a book. It's a verdict on the world's most influential intelligence agency. Armed with declassified documents, insider testimony, and a chronology of failures, Richard Blake reveals the true nature of the US Central Intelligence Agency—from shocking incompetence to political manipulation that cost thousands of lives.

- How did the CIA manage to ignore the approaching September 11th?
- Why did agents wage wars without understanding with whom or why?
- Who turned missions into farce and truth into lies?
- And how did an intelligence agency created to "prevent disasters" itself become a disaster?

This book is about how spies lost their country. And how the price of those mistakes still hangs over us.
