Rough Beast is Máiría Cahill's harrowing story of her life and of what she went through at the hands of what is now Ireland’s largest and richest party. That story is told here for the first time in full detail and with unsparing honesty. It is a story of unimaginable trauma and political corruption. It brings to life a world of paramilitary secrecy and parallel laws, but above all it is the story of one young woman’s defiance of the power wielded by ex-gunmen inspiring fear and silence, and their influence over elected politicians.

Wie demokratisch war Konrad Adenauer? Konrad Adenauer prägte als Gründungskanzler und hochverehrter Staatsmann eine ganze Epoche. Zur eigenen Machtsicherung hebelte der CDU-Chef dabei allerdings die von ihm selbst mitgestalteten demokratischen Spielregeln des Grundgesetzes aus: Über Jahre hinweg profitierte er heimlich von der gesetzwidrigen Ausforschung der SPD-Führung durch den Auslandsnachrichtendienst, die sein Kanzleramtschef Hans Globke und der BND-Präsidenten Reinhard Gehlen eingefädelt hatten.

México es uno de los lugares más peligrosos en el mundo para ejercer el periodismo.

It was a program conceived in secret by a group of men. Some were doctors; others were military officers and government officials—all with top-secret security clearances. They called it the Similar Likeness Project, and it would serve as the foundation for an enigma that would soon become one of the greatest mysteries in history. The project’s carefully curated children would be secret weapons—trained, assessed, and groomed to perfection. If they were needed for a mission, they would be brought into the fold. If not, they would live a normal life without even knowing the difference.

Martin T. Manton was a corrupt federal appeals court judge in New York who was convicted in 1939 and sent to prison. At the time, this was a hugely important story: Manton was considered the highest-ranking judge in the United States after the nine Justices of the Supreme Court, and was nearly appointed to that august body in 1922. Yet his story has never been told in book-length form before, and never with the benefit of such exhaustive research.

A nivel nacional e internacional, persiste la noción de que las instituciones policiacas de México son corruptas.
