Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 I wanted to write a book that would de-mystify the Phoenix program, which was a controversial CIA assassination program during the Vietnam War. I wrote Colby a letter and sent him my first book, The Hotel Tacloban. He was all for it.

#2 I was able to interview the people who created the Phoenix program, and they loved having a journalist who was sympathetic to soldiers listen to them and understand what they were saying.

#3 I interviewed members of the CIA, and they cooperated because Colby had sent me to them. I never asked them if they had killed anyone or done any illegal things, and they were confident I was de-mystifying the program because they trusted me.

#4 There is a Douglas Valentine Collection at the National Security Archives at George Washington University, which contains interviews with close to 100 CIA officers and military officers involved in the Phoenix program.
