*Winner of the European Award for Investigative And Judicial
Journalism 2021* *Winner of the Premio Alessandro Leogrande Award
for Investigative Journalism 2022* 'I want to live in a society
where secret power is accountable to the law and to public opinion
for its atrocities, where it is the war criminals who go to jail,
not those who have the conscience and courage to expose them.' It
is 2008, and Stefania Maurizi, an investigative journalist with a
growing interest in cryptography, starts looking into the
little-known organisation WikiLeaks. Through hushed meetings,
encrypted files and explosive documents, what she discovers sets
her on a life-long journey that takes her deep into the realm of
secret power. Working closely with WikiLeaks' founder Julian
Assange and his organisation for her newspaper, Maurizi has spent
over a decade investigating state criminality protected by thick
layers of secrecy, while also embarking on a solitary trench
warfare to unearth the facts underpinning the cruel persecution of
Assange and WikiLeaks. With complex and disturbing insights,
Maurizi's tireless journalism exposes atrocities, the shameful
treatment of Chelsea Manning and Edward Snowden, on up to the
present persecution of WikiLeaks: a terrifying web of impunity and
cover-ups. At the heart of the book is the brutality of secret
power and the unbearable price paid by Julian Assange, WikiLeaks
and truthtellers.
