If I Alone Can Fix It scratched your itch for Pulitzer-grade takedowns of ego-drunk leaders, Bag Man delivers another masterclass in investigative fury. Maddow reconstructs a political scandal with the same source-driven rigor and insider gossip that made Leonnig and Rucker's chaos chronicle so addictive—only here, the narcissism and corruption play out as dark comedy wrapped in constitutional crisis.
This isn't dry history; it's a thriller where hubris meets federal indictment. Every anecdote confirms what you already suspected: unchecked power breeds spectacular, self-inflicted ruin.
You wanted validation with narrative adrenaline—Bag Man gives you both, no apologies required.

"Bag Man is a really well organized and thoroughly consuming telling... The storytelling engages you from the opening to the final period. It was amazing to learn all the new details that have come out decades after the crime..." — Jeff, Goodreads
