WINNER OF THE TELEGRAPH SPORTS AWARD FOOTBALL BOOK OF THE YEAR 2019 LONGLISTED FOR THE \'Best Sports Book of the 21st Century\' SPORTS BOOK AWARD \'Gripping ... Bensinger\'s impeccably sourced account serves as a sharp reminder of the gargantuan levels of largesse and excess during Fifa\'s bad, bad days - as well as a warning that not enough has been done to prevent them returning.\' Sean Ingle, Guardian \'Bensinger deftly deploys novelistic devices to turn it into a real-life detective thriller ... [it] resembles John Grisham\' Private Eye The story of FIFA\'s fall from grace has it all: power, betrayal, revenge, sports stars, hustlers, corruption, sex and phenomenal quantities of money, all set against exotic locales stretching from Caribbean beaches to the formal staterooms of the Kremlin and the sun-blasted streets of Doha, Qatar. In Red Card, investigative journalist Ken Bensinger takes a journey to FIFA\'s dark heart. He introduces the flamboyant villains of the piece - the FIFA kingpins who flaunted their wealth in private jets and New York\'s grandest skyscrapers - and the dogged team of American FBI and IRS agents, headed by Attorney General Loretta Lynch, who finally brought them to book. Providing fresh insights on a scandal which has gripped the world, he shows how greed and arrogance brought down the most powerful institution in sporting history. A wild, gritty, gripping, and at times blackly comic story, Red Card combines world-class journalism with the pace of a thriller. Σελίδες: 384, Έτος Έκδοσης: 0506, Διαστάσεις: 12.4x12.4cm
