Synopsis

**THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING TRUE STORY BEHIND ITV’S THE HACK**

WITH EXPLOSIVE NEW EVIDENCE, THIS IS THE UPDATED EDITION OF THE BOOK THAT EXPOSED THE PHONE HACKING SCANDAL

Crime, conspiracy, abuse of power – this is the inside story of the scandal that blew the lid off Rupert Murdoch’s empire. Nearly twenty years since one of Murdoch’s reporters was caught eavesdropping on Buckingham Palace, the revelations keep coming. And Nick Davies is still digging out new evidence.

Hack Attack is the story of how Davies and a network of rebel lawyers, MPs and celebrities took on one of the most powerful men in the world and uncovered a web of crime and cover-up reaching from the Murdoch newsrooms to Scotland Yard and Downing Street. It was a scandal that shocked the British elite. And it’s not over yet.

'A colossal service to Britain's democracy' Financial Times

'As exciting as a thriller but far more important' Daily Telegraph

'A masterly summary of the hacking affair, as well as the ingenuity and persistence that lead to great journalism' Observer
