Given unprecedented access, thousands of pages of once secret documents, and hundreds of interviews, Garrett M. Graff takes us inside the FBI and its attempt to protect America from the Munich Olympics in 1972 to the attempted Times Square bombing in 2010. It also tells the inside story of the FBI's behind-the-scenes fights with the CIA, the Department of Justice, and five White Houses over how to combat terrorism, balance civil liberties, and preserve security. The book also offers a never-before-seen intimate look at FBI Director Robert Mueller, the most important director since Hoover himself. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Brilliantly reported and suspensefully told, \u003ci\u003eThe Threat Matrix\u003c\/i\u003e peers into the darkest corners of this secret war and will change your view of the FBI forever.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGarrett Graff\u003c\/b\u003e is the editor-in-chief of \u003ci\u003eThe Washingtonian\u003c\/i\u003e.
