MOSCOW, JULY 1987. Real-estate tycoon Donald Trump visits Soviet
Russia for the first time at the invitation of the government.
LONDON, DECEMBER 2016. Luke Harding meets former MI6 officer
Christopher Steele to discuss the president-elect's connections with
Russia. Harding follows two leads; money and sex.
WASHINGTON, January 2017. Steele's explosive dossier alleges that the
Kremlin has been 'cultivating, supporting, and assisting' Trump for
years and that they have compromising information about him. Trump
responds on twitter, 'FAKE NEWS.'
In_ Collusion_, award-winning journalist Luke Harding reveals the true
nature of Trump's decades-long relationship with Russia and presents
the gripping inside story of the dossier. It features exclusive new
material and draws on sources from the intelligence community.
Harding tells an astonishing story of offshore money, sketchy
real-estate deals, a Miss Universe Pageant, mobsters, money
laundering, hacking and Kremlin espionage. He shines a light on
powerful Russian players like Aras Agalarov, Natalia Veselnitskaya and
Sergey Kislyak, whose motivations and instructions may have come from
Vladimir Putin himself. The special prosecutor, Robert Mueller, has
already indicted several of the American protagonists, including
Trump's campaign manager, Paul Manafort. More charges are likely as
the crisis engulfs Trump's administration.
This book gets to the heart of the biggest political scandal of the
modern era. Russia is reshaping the world order to its advantage; this
is something that should trouble us all.
