Blood and Oil the explosive untold story of how Mohammed bin Salman and his entourage grabbed power in the Middle East and
acquired a network of Western allies - including well-known US bankers, Hollywood figures, and politicians - all eager to
help the charming and crafty crown prince.
Through astonishing interviews with powerful insiders, Blood and Oil tells how MBS's cabal played the Saudi economy and
capitalized on the omnipotence of feudal power while effectively stamping out dissent, before allegations of his extreme
brutality and excess began to slip out. A story of breathtaking dealings that range from Riyadh to London, Paris to
America, this is a thrilling and brutal investigation into extreme wealth, one of the world's most decisive and dangerous
new leaders, and the bid for Suadi transformation that is reverberating around the world.
