Terrible Humans
Patrick Alley / English / 2024 / 352 Pages
While powerful warlords, kleptocrats, and corporate players make backroom deals and quietly profit from conflict and exploitation, a small group of determined investigators work to uncover the truth. Following money trails, exposing hidden networks, and sometimes going undercover, they reveal the systems that allow corruption to thrive. This is a gripping, eye-opening look at the global web of power—and the people committed to holding it accountable, one case at a time.
