“It’s hard to remember, but for the last quarter of the twentieth century, the CIA took no part in assassinating bad guys. How the agency transformed itself into ‘a killing machine, an organization consumed with manhunting,’ is the subject of Mark Mazzetti’s fascinating, trenchant, sometimes tragicomic account, The Way of the Knife.”

New York Times Book Review


New York Times journalist Mark Mazzetti has won numerous awards, including a Pulitzer Prize for international reporting. In The Way of the Knife, Mazzetti offers a riveting account of how the CIA and special ops forces have been transformed to accommodate the new American way of war. From killer drones to clandestine spy networks, today's non-battlefield methods of fighting are no longer bound by rules of wartime accountability.
