Summary
But as the FBI and federal prosecutors closed in on ADM, using stakeouts, wiretaps, and secret recordings of illegal meetings around the world, they suddenly found that everything was not all that it appeared. At the same time Whitacre was cooperating with the Feds while playing the role of loyal company man, he had his own agenda he kept hidden from everyone around him: his wife, his lawyer, even the FBI agents who had come to trust him with the case they had put their careers on the line for. Whitacre became sucked into his own world of James Bond antics, imperiling the criminal case and creating a web of deceit that left the FBI and prosecutors uncertain where the lies stopped and the truth began.
A page-turning real-life thriller that features deadpan FBI agents, crooked executives, idealistic lawyers, and shady witnesses with an addiction to intrigue, The Informant tells an important and compelling story of power and betrayal in America.

Critic reviews
"Arthur Morey presents this true-crime drama like the fictional crime thriller it easily could be. His no-nonsense approach provides credibility, while his enhancement of each character's vocal nuances brings the story to life. Morey's interpretation of Eichenwald's exhaustive research enhances the story's many plot twists, leaving listeners checking the package to make sure it is really nonfiction." (AudioFile)
