Overview

"In 2017, the White House denied it was planning to hire a private Montana company to run a covert direct-action spy network. It sounded unbelievable. That was actually the most believable part of the whole story. In the mountain town of Whitefish, accusations flew between a controversial tech tycoon and a Marine Corps veteran with a shadowy past. The one-time friends had created Amyntor Group, a mysterious Montana business with global ambitions. Multiple investigations surrounding the two men and their company produced shocking allegations about fraud, sex, crooked cops, the Trump White House, and the CIA. When the dust settled, dozens of journalists, lawyers, business leaders, and government officials were left wondering whether any of it was true. This is the story of that case, as told by the FBI agent who spearheaded the federal investigations into the leaders of two seemingly unrelated entities: Amyntor and Oath Keepers. He found a wide-ranging story of covert action, misinformation, and intrigue stretching from the Rocky Mountains to Washington, DC, from the Middle East to Middle America. Like everyone else, he discovered that almost nothing in Whitefish or Washington was as it initially seemed. Proving that truth really can be stranger than fiction, the author takes readers through an entire FBI fraud investigation, from the day the case comes in, through many surprising twists, and eventually to its dramatic conclusion. Using wide-ranging research, he unexpectedly connects the case to controversial leaders, political figures, and touchstone events in modern American history. Along the way, he shares the challenges of simultaneously dealing with prosecutions involving the largest militia-related group in the United States, including its involvement at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. A 26-year veteran of the FBI, the writer acknowledges how past bureau mistakes have sometimes caused a loss in public confidence but demonstrates how hard-working public servants throughout the government continue to advance and protect the nation's interests. This book will challenge readers to look hard at things they ""know"" are ""true"" and ask themselves why."
