They also delve into our personal lives, using off-the-shelf technology to listen to our phone calls, monitor our emails, and control what we see on social media. Spooked takes us on a journey into a secret billion-dollar industry where information is currency and loyalties are for sale. This industry spans from Saddam Hussein to an 80s-era Trump, from the Steele dossier written by a British ex-spy to Russian oligarchs living in Mayfair mansions, from Harvey Weinstein's devious tactics to the growing role of corporate spies in politics and the threat to future elections. Spooked reads like the best kind of spy story, a gripping tale packed with twists and turns, revealing a secret side of our modern world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 546g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 163 x 244 x 32 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781529365900                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Barry Meier","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44097600291066,"sku":"9781529365900","price":14.16,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/d6c12a2674d316dfa85413f97260eb43.jpg?v=1621962826","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/spooked-the-secret-rise-of-private-spies","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
