The Nord Stream Conspiracy
The Greatest Sabotage in History
Format:
Pre-order:
Brought to you by Penguin.
In September 2022, Scandinavian seismologists picked up tremors that resembled a huge undersea earthquake or volcanic eruption. These signals were caused by several devastating explosions that destroyed Nord Stream, the $20 billion pipeline carrying cheap Russian gas to Europe. The consequences were immediate, shifting global geopolitics, delivering a body blow to one of the world’s largest economies, fuelling tensions in the Russo-Ukrainian war and triggering a manhunt that would rupture relations within the NATO alliance.
Despite capturing the imagination of millions, the mystery of who blew up the pipeline has so far gone unsolved – was it the CIA? Could Putin himself have been behind it? Was it part of the shadow war between Russia and the West? – until now. Drawing on exclusive access to key players, including the saboteurs, the investigators and high-level intelligence, this deeply reported non-fiction thriller by an award-winning Wall Street Journal journalist reveals the true story in full for the first time.
