About this listen

It's the most shocking, unknown tale of our era: a defense contractor who bribed US Navy officers with cash, prostitutes, and luxury items in return for multimillion-dollar deals. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

With exclusive access to Leonard Glenn Francis himself, Fat Leonard reveals the true story of the misogynistic men at the heart of the navy and the brave women who brought them down. In an incredible development in 2022, Leonard escaped US custody and fled to Venezuela, where he's fighting extradition to face justice in a San Diego courtroom.

Tom Wright has succinctly outlined a chronology of events surrounding the US Navy’s largest ever fraud. This is a truly fascinating story, clearly well researched by Tom. Adding audio clips of Fat Leonard himself simply adds to the authenticity of this audiobook. Well done Tom Wright.

A tale of corruption at the highest of levels
