520 |a In this vital, incisive book, Honig explains how men like Trump repeatedly beat the system. He goes inside the hall of the Justice Department to report for the first time on how federal prosecutors went light on Trump in an infamous case involving hush money payments and campaign finance violations. From his insider's perspective, Honig exposes what makes so many prosecutors treat powerful criminals as untouchable--and how we can upend this untenable situation. -- adapted from jacket
