Summary:
The NYPD is the best and most ambitious antiterror operation in the world. Its seat-of-the-pants intelligence is the gold standard for all others. Drawing on unparalleled access to Police Commissioner Ray Kelly and other top officials, Dickey explores this metropolitan police department's intelligence operation and its methods, some of which are highly worrisome.
