FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR
The Perfect Police State

—Barbara Demick, author of Nothing to Envy:
Ordinary Lives in North Korea
FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR

“Cain’s writing is appropriately damning of Samsung’s failures and admiring of its achievements, providing a comprehensive look at one of the most secretive and consequential companies in the world.”
—The Verge
