Beschreibung
A decade-defining exposé which does for the energy industry what Empire of Pain did for pharmaceuticals, and Bad Blood did for Silicon Valley.
On March 24, 2021, in the remote north of Mozambique, 500 ISIS militants attacked the small, paradise beach town of Palma - strategically unimportant but for vast offshore gas fields that had attracted $50 billion in foreign investment, the biggest ever in Africa.
As the Islamists surged through town, dragging civilians into the street and beheading them, a group of 183 men, women and children barricaded themselves inside a hotel to await rescue. They knew an oil and gas giant had a base defended by 750 soldiers and four helicopter gunships minutes away. But help never came.
Alex Perry's spell-binding, meticulous reconstruction unearths a hidden fiasco of shattering scale, the deadliest terror attack since 9/11. Woven into his account is a search for answers to a single question: How do energy companies really make such vast profits?
His investigation takes him from Scotland to Pennsylvania, the Outback to the Amazon, as he tracks down the roughnecks, mercenaries, billionaires, and corporate spooks willing to shed light on an industry dogged by violence. As the revelations build, Perry is drawn into a legal drama aimed at bringing the guilty to justice. For without a reckoning, his reporting suggests, thousands more will die.
Ground-breaking, lyrical, furious, and presented at a time when energy companies imperil the planet and hold whole countries hostage,
Blood Will Flow delivers the untold story of a lost catastrophe, an exposé of the bloody world at the other end of the pipeline, and a morality tale for the global economy.
