Ever since 9/11, investigative reporter Peter Lance has been leading the fight to expose the intelligence gaps that led to 9/11. Now, in the follow-up to his bestselling 1000 Years for Revenge, he returns with devastating new evidence that the government has been covering up its own counterterror failures since the mid-1990s -- and continues today. In Cover Up, Lance shows how the government chose again and again to sacrifice America's national security for personal motives and political convenience. In its first half, he unveils shattering new evidence that terror mastermind Ramzi Yousef ordered the bombing of TWA 800 from his prison cell in order to effect a mistrial in his own terror bombing case. Astonishingly, the FBI was alerted to Yousef's plans in advance by a prison informant who even passed along his detailed sketch of a bomb-trigger device -- a document seen here for the first time. And Lance reveals the shocking reason the Justice Department suddenly ruled the crash anaccident despite overwhelming evidence of the bombing -- throwing away its best chance to penetrate the cell that was already planning 9/11. And the outrage doesn't stop there. In Part II, Lance offers an unofficial "minority report" on the 9/11 Commission, critiquing it as the incomplete, highly politicized "Warren Commission of our time." He explores potential conflicts of interest among its members, from the staff director who wrote a book with Condoleezza Rice, to the former Clinton deputy attorney general who participated in a critical meeting that upended the TWA probe. He exposes the report's false contention that the 9/11 plan was conceived in 1996, when the FBI had knowledge that the plot was in motion as early as 1994. And, in a heart-stopping, minute-by-minute chronicle of the attacks, he asks dozens of unanswered questions about the defense failures of that day -- from why fighter jets weren't scrambled for almost an hour after the hijackings, to why the president and several of his top military advisers remained virtually incommunicado for more than half an hour after it was clear that America was under attack. At a time when America feels no safer than ever, Cover Up will lend new eyes to readers who want the full story behind the 9/11 attacks -- and inspire us all to keep demanding the truth.

The Pulitzer Prize winner who first disclosed the massacre at My Lai 4 uncovers the full story of how those involved - from private to general - kept it secret. What he reveals is shocking - from the amorphous but very real "West Point Protective Association" to the fact that an extensive but closed investigation by the Army itself covered up another massacre by the same unit on the same morning.

When informed that the bodies of her soon-to-be-ex-husband, Greg, and his longtime friend Mape, have been discovered at a bizarre crime scene that morning, Capri (Pree) Olindo struggles to find a measure of sympathy for the dead men but finds only relief. Greg's gradual addiction to prescription drugs over the course of their six-year marriage had transformed her once-loving husband into an abusive stranger. Months before, Pree had inadvertently discovered documents showing that Greg, with Mape's assistance, was in the process of transferring her personal assets into his name and was planning to divorce her, leaving her nearly penniless. Shocked and heartsick, Pree was able to stop the men from carrying out their plan, an action that so infuriated Greg that he paid an undercover Bullhead City Police Detective to murder her and burn down their beautiful home. The deaths of the men are ultimately ruled an apparent murder/suicide, although Pree has compelling evidence they were murdered by a third party. Pree is reluctant to turn the evidence over to the police because some of it indicated that her son Jimmy could be the killer. Certain that Jimmy is incapable of murder, Pree sets out to establish her son's innocence before involving the authorities. Her relentless pursuit of the truth leads Pree into a world of blackmail, insurance fraud, identity theft, larceny, murder-for-hire, and an enormous quantity of unexplained cash which forces her to distance herself from loved ones, lie to her friends, and eventually to begin questioning her long-held beliefs regarding right and wrong, lawful, and justified. This story was inspired by true events.
