" The year's best spy thriller is stranger - and more horrifying - than fiction...He weaves a breathless narrative as compelling as it is disturbing ... bracingly exposes the rot that's persisted across elite American institutions for decades. "-- DavidCanfield, Entertainment Weekly, "The connections between presidents, media moguls, and spies described in Catch and Kill are stranger than fiction. As a novel, it would be a page-turner. As a reported piece of nonfiction, it's terrifying ."-- Eliana Dockterman, Time, " Catch and Kill reads like a thriller, prime to be adapted for the screen."-- Sophie McBain, New Statesman, "One can only marvel at [Farrow's] courage, his resilience and moral fiber. I t's one thing to tilt at windmills, it's another to tilt at a human power saw ."-- Stephen Galloway, The Hollywood Reporter, " Reads like a thriller ... The reveal in Catch and Kill is not that there are corrupt people; it's that corrupt people are in control of our media, politics, and entertainment and that, in fact, many of them remain in control. "-- RebeccaTraister, The Cut, "Ronanis the kind of journalist that activists like myself rely on...His care andcompassion for the stories survivors' entrusted him with shows in howdiligently he investigated each claim. After all of the work he has done tocarry their stories forward, I am excited for the world to read this book."-- Tarana Burke, " Read this book ...Farrow's greatest success was to listen, believe and act, even at his own peril."-- MariaL. La Ganga, Los Angeles Times, " An engrossing, emotive, often drily funny binge ... a humdinger of a story... a nuanced appreciation of how women are smeared and discredited... combines righteous anger, gossip and comedy ."-- The Times (U.K.), "Catch and Kill is the latest reminder of the extent to which men in power in America can protect one another, and the consequences when that protection succeeds."-- Anna North, Vox, "At the heart of every great noir is a conspiracy of evil that imbues the initial crime uncovered by the hero with a weightier resonance than was immediately obvious. So it goes with Catch and Kill ."-- Elizabeth Bruenig, TheWashington Post, " Catch and Kill " is, in many ways, horrifyingly grim - a nightmare confirmation of the worst in human nature and the entangled upper echelons of the media and political worlds. But, as Farrow has noted in interviews, it also admits some rays of hope."-- Julia M. Klein, Forward, " Catch and Kill is a rip-roaring account of the years spent chasing the Weinstein story and its spin-offs. It's a deep dive into the world of US media, Hollywood pay-outs, Donald Trump's eccentric ways, spies and spineless editors. And is it gripping... dripping with jaw-dropping revelations and moments of astonishing pathos ."-- Harriet Alexander, The Telegraph (U.K), "Combines the intricate reporting of All The President's Men with Kafkaesque atmosphere to reveal troubling collusion between the media and the powerful interests they cover. This is a crackerjack journalistic thriller. "-- Publishers Weekly, "Befitting a Farrow story, Catch and Kill is chocka¬block with scoops and revelations."-- PaulFarhi, The Washington Post, "Historically this book is going to have lasting importance as a vividly detailed, in-the-trenches account of the epic effort it took to try to bring down just a piece of the wall of patriarchy that has kept women exploited and oppressed in the media industry and American life forever."-- David Zurawik, The Baltimore Sun, "Ronan Farrow has entered the pantheon of great investigative reporters. With meticulous research and endless revelations, he exposes a system of abuses and cover ups-a system that for too long has been protected. This is an invaluable book ." -- David Grann, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Killersof the Flower Moon, "Absorbing ...The behavior documented in Catch and Kill is obviously and profoundly distressing. ... But there are some hopeful threads, too."-- Jennifer Szalai, New York Times, "The book is full of plot and drama...This is a story about a ruling class of men who protect one another - and about the courage of women who speak up."-- Abraham Gutman, The Philadelphia Inquirer, Time Must-Read Book of 2019 NPR Favorite Book of 2019 Washington Post Best Nonfiction Book of 2019 Los Angeles Times Best Book of 2019 Chicago Tribune Best Book of 2019 Fortune Best Business Book of 2019 Bloomberg Best Book of the Year Telegraph (U.K) Best Book of 2019 Kirkus Best Nonfiction Books of 2019 A Chicago Public Library Best Book of 2019 Library Journal Best Social Science Book of 2019 One of USA Today 's Best Books to Read While Stuck at Home, "We've been reading about sex scandals beginning with Harvey Weinstein, but only Ronan Farrow, who reported them, tells us how women's voices were discredited and suppressed for so long. Catch and Kill reads like a great detective novel, and could lead to a safer and more just future."-- GloriaSteinem, " Riveting and often shocking . . . Catch and Kill h as gone off like a hand grenade in the world of New York media . . . compelling"-- Sunday Times (U.K.), " Catch and Kill is an important, frightening book ...it's also a propulsive, cinematic page-turner "-- Erin Keane, Salon, " Catch and Kill is exhaustively reported...and compulsively readable , with nearly every page revealing a provocative detail about a household name in media or entertainment."-- EJDickson, Rolling Stone, " Darkly funny and poignant... a winning account of how it feels to be at the centre of the biggest story in the world . It is also, of course, a breathtakingly dogged piece of reporting , in the face of extraordinary opposition."-- EmmaBrockes, The Guardian (U.K.), "A measured but damning portrait of that failure at NBC, which he ties to a pattern of harassment and abuse within the network."-- Annalisa Quinn, NPR.org, " Catch and Kill is literally jaw-dropping-a shocking, meticulous record of the vast machinery with which moral bankruptcy protects itself, and of the arsenal of weapons available to colossally powerful men whose careers depend on silencing those seeking accountability and truth...This book reveals damningly widespread corruption, complacency, and cowardice, and against it, the blazing courage of the women who spoke out-it's a blueprint of a hideous world, and a foundational building block of a new one."-- JiaTolentino, author of Trick Mirror, " Meticulous and devastating ...part All the President's Men , part spy thriller."-- Rasha Madkour, Associated Press, " Catch and Kill is proof that Ronan Farrow is the best kind of reporter: thorough, honest, and compassionate...it digs deep and Farrow is never afraid to tell the truth no matter where the sparks may fly."-- James Patterson, "Part memoir, part spy thriller, the book is an engrossing account of the dark arts employed by the powerful to suppress their stockpiled bad behavior as well as the cover-up culture that pervades executive suites -many of them at Farrow's former employer, NBC News."-- MarisaGuthrie, The Hollywood Reporter, " Catch and Kill weaves together months of reporting to reveal explosive allegations that play out like a terrifying spy thriller ."-- KateStorey, Esquire, " Must read: Catch and Kill , by Ronan Farrow . How #sexualabuse stories got suppressed, and how deep-diving, fact-gathering reporting blew the lid off, despite threats, intimidation, and cronymongering at the top. Chilling!"-- Margaret Atwood

And a trail of clues revealed corruption and cover-ups from Hollywood to Washington and beyond. This is the untold story of the exotic tactics of surveillance and intimidation deployed by wealthy and connected men to threaten journalists, evade accountability, and silence victims of abuse. And it's the story of the women who risked everything to expose the truth and spark a global movement. Both a spy thriller and a meticulous work of investigative journalism, Catch and Kill breaks devastating new stories about the rampant abuse of power and sheds far-reaching light on investigations that shook our culture.
