A classic... With a keen journalist’s eye for detail and a movie director’s sense of pacing, Pancevski tells one hell of a story. You won’t want to put this book down
Fiona Hill, former intelligence official and Russia advisor to President Trump
One of the most significant and riveting journalistic scoops of the twenty-first century. Through exclusive interviews, Pancevski reveals the definitive account of a daring mission brimming with secrets, saboteurs, and spies. This is investigative storytelling at its finest — relentlessly fast-paced, meticulously reported, and an absolute page-turner
Richard Kerbaj, author of The Secret History of The Five Eyes
Totally fascinating and deeply researched. As compelling as an international spy thriller that follows a winding thread through a submerged world of conspiracy - both a fantastic read and an important work of investigation
Simon Sebag Montefiore, Sunday Times bestselling author of The World
A cinematic and compelling account of one of history's greatest acts of sabotage. Unlike much of what's been said by politicians and commentators on the attack, The Nord Stream Conspiracy has the added benefit of being true
Ben Smith, author of Traffic
A riveting exposé... With extraordinary access to the key players across nations, Pancevski delivers a gripping account and the closest look yet at an event whose geopolitical repercussions continue to reverberate
Walter Russell Mead, Professor of Strategy and Statecraft
A truly riveting account of the most notorious act of sabotage in modern history. Pancevski combines investigative flair with geopolitical insight to illuminate not only how the Nord Stream pipelines were destroyed, but why they matter so profoundly to Europe’s energy, security and political future. A real-life page turner
Peter Frankopan, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Silk Roads
All the elements of a fictional thriller – except it really happened. A heady mixture of Machiavellian geopolitics, storm-lashed seas, a rag-tag collection of flawed yet heroic characters and a glamorous diver called Freya. I can already see the blockbuster movie
Rory Clements, Sunday Times bestselling author of Munich Wolf
An absolutely extraordinary book… Combining the skills of a detective with those of a novelist, Pancevski has not only uncovered the truth about one of the most daring acts of sabotage in modern history but done so with the page-turning propulsion of a first-rate thriller. One of those rare books that informs even as it wholly entertains
Scott Anderson, author of the New York Times bestseller King of Kings
Here is a powerful detective story that finally and definitively answers the question who blew up Nord Stream. Not only is it brilliant journalism, but it reads like a bestselling thriller
Admiral James Stavridis, former NATO Supreme Allied Commander and bestselling author
Pancevski has plucked from the Baltic depths a pearl of a story. In parts it reads like a Jason Bourne thriller except it’s all true – a shadow world brought into the light. The result is jaw-dropping
Rory Carroll, Sunday Times bestselling author of Killing Thatcher
Pancevski’s investigation into the attack on the North Stream pipelines is as daring and mind-blowing as the sabotage itself
Ivan Krastev, author of The Light that Failed
