New Releases by James Comey

Federal prosecutor Nora Carleton is drawn into international intrigue as she investigates the assassination of a weapons manufacturer in this latest thriller from the former director of the FBI. Nora Carleton is hitting her stride as Deputy US Attorney for the Southern District of New York when a high-stakes counterintelligence case pulls her into a deadly game with global implications. A Russian-style hit on an executive at an American drone manufacturer sends a chilling message—but what exactly is it? Was the victim a Russian mole or just a convenient target? Teaming up with her longtime friend, Special Agent Benny Dugan, Nora launches a criminal investigation that takes them from New York to Las Vegas with the hopes of prosecuting a traitor who has put their country at risk. But as they dig deeper into the tangled web of Russian intelligence and those who profit from its reach, Nora finds herself in the crosshairs of powerful forces determined to keep their secrets buried.

After a stint in the private sector, working at the largest hedge fund in the world, Nora Carleton has returned to her former role as a New York City federal prosecutor. And she's arrived just in time to face one of the most dangerous domestic terror attacks in the history of the city. A threat is building in the city, with far right extremism powered by internet demagogues and funded by shadowy organizations. Together with legendary investigator Benny Dugan and aided by colleagues at the FBI, Nora builds a case against one of the key players in this burgeoning movement, arguing before a jury that some speech is actually a deadly crime. But the menace taking root is far bigger than any courtroom, and as the militants target an upcoming United Nations rally, Nora and her team must race to disrupt the plans and minimize casualties. At once a fast-paced legal thriller and a close look at the very real perils of political extremism, FDR Drive harnesses former FBI director James Comey's life experience to tell an authentic and compelling narrative that readers won't soon forget.

A Newsweek and Reader's Digest most-anticipated read of 2023. In the thrilling first crime novel from the former director of the FBI, a murder investigation reveals deadly connections between high-ranking politicians and the mafia. The gripping crime fiction debut from former FBI director James Comey takes readers deep inside the world of lawyers and investigators working to solve a murder while navigating the treacherous currents of modern politics and the mob. When a years-long case against a powerful mobster finally cracks and an unimpeachable witness takes the stand, federal prosecutor Nora Carleton is looking forward to putting the defendant away for good. The mobster, though, has other plans. As the witness's testimony concludes, a note is passed to the prosecution offering up information into the assassination of a disgraced former New York governor, murdered in his penthouse apartment just days before. It's enough to blow the case wide open, and to send Nora into a high-stakes investigation of conspiracy, corruption, and danger. Drawing from the author's decades in federal law enforcement, including his years in Manhattan as a mob prosecutor and later the chief federal prosecutor, Central Park West is a fast-paced legal thriller with an intriguing plot enriched by real-life details and experiences. That unique perspective gives the novel much of its allure, but it's the unforgettable characters, shocking twists, and courtroom scenes as authentic as they are dramatic that will leave readers looking forward to more from this bold new talent in the genre.

James Comey, former FBI Director and New York Times bestselling author of A Higher Loyalty, uses his long career in federal law enforcement to explore issues of justice and fairness in the US justice system. James Comey might best be known as the FBI director that Donald Trump fired in 2017, but he’s had a long, varied career in the law and justice system. He knows better than most just what a force for good the US justice system can be, and how far afield it has strayed during the Trump Presidency. In his much-anticipated follow-up to A Higher Loyalty, Comey uses anecdotes and lessons from his career to show how the federal justice system works. From prosecuting mobsters as an Assistant US Attorney in the Southern District of New York in the 1980s to grappling with the legalities of anti-terrorism work as the Deputy Attorney General in the early 2000s to, of course, his tumultuous stint as FBI director beginning in 2013, Comey shows just how essential it is to pursue the primacy of truth for federal law enforcement. Saving Justice is gracefully written and honestly told, a clarion call for a return to fairness and equity in the law.

Strhující pohled do zákulisí americké politiky Kniha bývalého šéfa FBI Jamese Comeyho se stala bestsellerem ještě před vydáním. Comey v ní kritizuje současného prezidenta Donalda Trumpa, kterého považuje za zdroj nebezpečného chaosu. Jeho vzpomínky ale sahají mnohem dál než k současné hlavě Bílého domu, dostane se i na George W. Bushe, Baracka Obamu a ke kauze uniklých mailů Hillary Clintonové. Své počínání vysvětluje tím, že smyslem služby státu je vyšší zájem, povznesený nad stranické loajality.

Kun vastavalittu presidentti Donald Trump vaati FBI:n johtajalta James Comeyltä täydellistä lojaaliutta, ei tämä voinut sitä luvata. ”Huoneeseen laskeutui hiljaisuus, jonka aikana en liikkunut, puhunut tai muuttanut ilmettäni. En voisi suostua vaatimukseen, en koskaan. Katselimme toisiamme silmästä silmään ikuisuudelta tuntuvan ajan. Muistan ajatelleeni, että presidentillä ei ollut hajuakaan FBI:n roolista amerikkalaisessa järjestelmässä. Ei hajuakaan.” Trump irtisanoi Comeyn toukokuussa 2017. Kohumuistelmissaan James Comey paljastaa Yhdysvaltain poliittisen lähihistorian kiperimmät käänteet ja kertoo suorin sanoin, millaisen johtajan maa on Donald Trumpista saanut. Liittovaltion poliisin entinen johtaja vertaa Trumpia mafiapomoihin ja sanoo tämän olevan moraalisesti sopimaton presidentiksi. Kirjassan James Comey haastaa Trumpin arvovallan ja nöyryyttävän käyttäytymisen kesken kiivainta Venäjä-tutkintaa. Pitkän uran lakimiehenä, syyttäjänä ja korkeiden virkojen haltijana tehnyt James Comey toimi Barack Obaman nimittämänä FBI:n johtajana vuodesta 2013 vuoteen 2017. Suoralinjaisen ja suorapuheisen tutkijan uran varrelle on mahtunut useita korkean profiilin tapauksia. Hän on mm. toiminut syyttäjänä mafiaa vastaan, ollut muuttamassa George W. Bushin hallinnon kidutus- ja valvontakäytäntöjä ja johtanut niin Hillary Clintonin sähköpostitutkintaa kuin Trumpin vaalikampanjan Venäjä-kytköksiäkin. Kahden vuosikymmenen kokemuksella Comey kuljettaa lukijaa vallan käytävillä ja kulissien takana osoittaakseen, mitä on hyvä johtajuus ja mitä se vallanpitäjiltä edellyttää.

Als directeur van de FBI had James Comey nooit verwacht midden in de verkiezingsstrijd tussen Donald Trump en Hillary Clinton te belanden, en toch is dat precies wat er gebeurde. Hij speelde een sleutelrol in de onderzoeken naar de e-mails van Hillary Clinton en de connecties van het Trump-campagneteam met Rusland. Het eerste kostte Clinton waarschijnlijk het presidentschap; het laatste kostte Comey zijn baan. In Loyaliteit doet hij met vaardige pen en scherp observatievermogen verslag van die historische gebeurtenissen en van zijn eerdere carrière. Of hij nu vertelt over zijn confrontaties met de New Yorkse maffia of met de politieke top van George W. Bush, steeds onderzoekt hij de vraag: wat is een goed leider, en waar hoort diens loyaliteit te liggen?

Comment rester loyal envers les valeurs que vous avez défendues toute votre vie, même quand cette loyauté peut entraîner votre perte ? Le jour où Donald Trump a congédié James Comey, alors directeur du FBI, en mai 2017, il a déclenché un gigantesque incendie politique. Celui qui s’est retrouvé au cœur des flammes a gardé le silence – jusqu’à aujourd’hui. Dans ce livre très attendu, l’ancien patron du FBI raconte pour la première fois le rôle historique qu’il a joué lors de l’élection présidentielle de 2016. Tout au long de sa carrière, il s’est illustré en prenant des décisions cruciales dans les affaires criminelles les plus controversées, qu’il s’agisse des conflits avec la mafia, de la lutte contre le terrorisme après les attentats du 11 septembre, des positions de Dick Cheney et George Bush sur la torture ou de l’enquête sur les courriels classifiés d’Hillary Clinton durant les derniers mois de l’administration Obama. Mais surtout James Comey revient en détail sur ses différentes rencontres avec le président Donald Trump à qui il a refusé les gages de « loyauté » qui lui étaient demandés – un geste qui lui a coûté très cher. Tout au long de cet ouvrage exceptionnel, fourmillant de révélations, il témoigne de l’importance vitale qu’il y a pour tous les dirigeants comme pour chaque citoyen à encourager une culture qui place la vérité au sommet de leur échelle de valeurs.
