A Wall Street Journal best book of the year "What made this episode
in our collective history possible was not so much the lies we told
one another, but the lies we told ourselves." A recent Brown
University graduate, Michael Soussan was elated when he landed a
position as a program coordinator for the United Nations' Iraq
Program. Little did he know that he would end up a whistleblower in
what PBS NewsHour described as the "largest financial scandal in UN
history." Breaking a conspiracy of silence that had prevailed for
years, Soussan sparked an unprecedented corruption probe into the
Oil-for-Food program that exposed a worldwide system of bribes,
kickbacks, and blackmail involving ruthless power-players from
around the globe. At the crossroads of pressing humanitarian
concerns, crisis diplomacy, and multibillion-dollar business
interests, Soussan's story highlights core flaws of our
international system and exposes the frightening, corrupting power
of the black elixir that fuels our world's economy.
