Product Information

A dazzling and infuriating portrait of fifty years of corporate influence in Washington, The Wolves of K Street is a masterpiece of narrative nonfiction--irresistibly dramatic, spectacularly timely, explosive in its revelations, and absolutely impossible to put down. In the 1970s, Washington's center of power began to shift away from elected officials in big marble buildings to a handful of savvy, handsomely paid operators who didn't answer to any fixed constituency. The cigar-chomping son of an influential congressman, an illustrious political fixer with a weakness for modern art, a Watergate-era dirty trickster, the city's favorite cocktail party host--these were the sort of men who now ran Washington. Over four decades, they'd chart new ways to turn their clients' cash into political leverage, abandoning favor-trading in smoke-filled rooms for increasingly sophisticated tactics, such as "shadow lobbying," where underground campaigns sparked seemingly organic public outcries to pressure lawmakers into taking actions that would ultimately benefit corporate interests rather than ordinary citizens. With billions of dollars at play, these lobbying dynasties enshrined in Washington a pro-business consensus that would guide the country's political leaders--Democrats and Republicans alike. A good lobbyist could ghostwrite a bill or even secretly kill a piece of legislation supported by the president, both houses of Congress, and a majority of Americans. Yet nothing lasts forever. Amid a populist backlash to the soaring inequality these influence peddlers helped usher in, DC's pro-business alliance suddenly began to fray. And while the lobbying establishment would continue to invent new ways to influence Washington, the men who'd built K Street would soon find themselves under legal scrutiny, on the verge of financial collapse, or worse. One would turn up dead behind the eighteenth green of an exclusive golf club, with a $1,500 bottle of wine at his feet and a bullet his head.

Reviews
"However nefarious you think the lobbying industry is in Washington, Brody and Luke Mullins have news: It's worse. Not even during the Roaring Twenties and the Gilded Age did corporate American wield so much influence. In their deeply reported, compelling new book, the Mullins brothers track how that happened, and the disastrous consequences." --Susan Page, New York Times bestselling author of The Matriarch, "A fast-paced deep dive into a world of greed and ambition, inhabited by a uniquely fascinating group of wheelers and dealers. The Wolves of K Street is a history of not only how money and power have influenced American politics, but how the work of lobbyists touches the lives of every American." --Kate Andersen Brower, New York Times bestselling author of The Residence, "However nefarious you think the lobbying industry is in Washington, Brody and Luke Mullins have news: It's worse. Not even during the Roaring Twenties and the Gilded Age did corporate American wield so much influence, fueling the rise of the populist right and the progressive left, of Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders. In their deeply reported, compelling new book, the Mullins brothers track how that happened, and the disastrous consequences." --Susan Page, New York Times bestselling author of The Matriarch: Barbara Bush and the Making of an American Dynasty, "Like many of the best stories, The Wolves of K Street opens with a corpse, which sets the Mullins brothers off to investigate what may be a more important mystery than any whodunit: How did corporations come to dominate the American political system?" --Sasha Issenberg, author of The Victory Lab, "The Mullins brothers promise to untangle the intricate--and ultimately, pathetic--story of the selling of the American republic, and they have succeeded brilliantly." --Duff McDonald, New York Times bestselling author of Tickled, "Engrossing.... Smoothly written, meticulously researched, The Wolves of K Street informs and mesmerizes." -- The Guardian, "This is nothing less than the definitive history of how corporate lobbyists took over Washington. The Mullins brothers have brought us the story of how Washington really works--and for whom." --Jonathan Martin, New York Times bestselling coauthor of This Will Not Pass, "If you want to understand how American democracy went off the rails, all you need to do is read this book." --Christopher Leonard, New York Times bestselling author of The Lords of Easy Money, "A vivid, brilliantly told tale that unfolds like a novel, this is the most potent portrait of the Washington swamp you will read." --Ken Auletta, New York Times bestselling author of Googled
