'If you've ever wondered what would happen if limitless money met
limitless power, wonder no longer, it's all here ... Terrifying,
disturbing and ghastly' Oliver Bullough, author of Moneyland
'Explosive' The Times '[A] Crisp page-turner of a book teeming with
telling detail ... Splendid' Financial Times 'The fascinating and
highly entertaining tale ... Fly-on-the-wall reporting and palace
intrigue worthy of Machiavelli' John Carreyrou, author of Bad Blood
Longlisted for the 2020 Financial Times / McKinsey Business Book of
the Year Blood and Oil the explosive untold story of how Mohammed
bin Salman and his entourage grabbed power in the Middle East and
acquired a network of Western allies - including well-known US
bankers, Hollywood figures, and politicians - all eager to help the
charming and crafty crown prince. Through astonishing interviews
with powerful insiders, Blood and Oil tells how MBS's cabal played
the Saudi economy and capitalised on the omnipotence of feudal
power while effectively stamping out dissent, before allegations of
his extreme brutality and excess began to slip out. A story of
breathtaking dealings that range from Riyadh to London, Paris to
America, this is a thrilling and brutal investigation into extreme
wealth, one of the world's most decisive and dangerous new leaders,
and the bid for Saudi transformation that is reverberating around
the world. 'This is as close to the truth, to the real story of the
corruption, vulgarities, horrors, and lies of the Kingdom and its
current despot as we are likely to get. It also can be read as a
Shakespearean story of utter greed' Seymour Hersh, author of Chain
of Command
