From the New York Times's Business Investigations Editor and author of Dark Towers comes an expose of the astonishing yet shadowy power wielded by the world's largest law firms, following the narrative arc of Jones Day, the firm that represented the Trump campaign and much of the Fortune 500, as a powerful encapsulation of the changes that have swept the legal industry in recent decades.

What The Reviewers Say

David Cay Johnston,
The Washington Post
... engrossing.
Lloyd Green,
The Guardian (UK)
... informative and disturbing. In an unflattering portrait of the rise of big law, behemoth firms that reach around the globe, Enrich homes in on Jones Day.
Mike Farris,
The New York Journal of Books
... more a morality tale than anything. In some detail, Enrich identifies the major problem associated with mega-law firms and the power and influence they command.

Kirkus
There are plenty of other shameful episodes, and Enrich is unblinking in reporting them, yielding a fast-moving, damning book.
