      2017., General, Dutton, an imprint of Penguin Random House Call No: Bio E48a    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Summary Note: It's no secret that federal agencies are waging a broad, global war against terror. In this memoir, a Muslim American federal agent reveals his experience infiltrating and bringing down a terror cell in North America. Tamer Elnoury joined an elite counterterrorism unit after September 11. Its express purpose is to gain the trust of terrorists whose goals are to take out as many Americans in as public and as devastating a way possible. It's a furious race against the clock to stop them before they can implement their plans. Yet as new as this war still is, the techniques are as old as time: listen, record, and prove terrorist intent. Due to his ongoing work for the FBI, Elnoury writes under a pseudonym.

      -- Truth, lies, and leadership
      2018., General, Flatiron Books Call No: Bio C732a   Edition: First edition.    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Summary Note: What is ethical leadership? How do you do what is right instead of what is politically expedient? How do you maintain loyalty to the values of the institutions you have sworn to protect, the values you have dedicated your entire life to upholding, even if that loyalty comes at your own personal expense? When Donald Trump fired FBI director James Comey on May 9, 2017, it ignited a political firestorm. The man at the center of that storm has kept silent until now. James Comey writes about his role in the historic 2016 election and its aftermath. That campaign was far from the first time Comey had been put to the test. Comey takes readers through the cases and personal events that helped shape his views of justice, fairness, and ethical leadership. We see his resolve tested after a harrowing brush with death and a heartbreaking personal loss. He offers insights into the leadership styles of three very different presidents, and we learn why the leaders who had the most profound influence on him were those without titles or political office. Even without the events of 2016 and the surreal moments in the Trump White House that followed, Comey's career involved some of the most fascinating and controversial criminal cases in recent history. He discusses his intense encounters with the Mafia as an assistant U.S. attorney, a job he started under an up-and-coming Rudy Giuliani. He explains what was truly at issue in the prosecutions of Martha Stewart and Scooter Libby and in the battles against surveillance and torture policies in the George W. Bush administration. Comey writes about when he rushed to the hospital bedside of an ailing Attorney General John Ashcroft to intercept representatives sent by President Bush who were determined to subvert their own Justice Department. Comey also details the involvement he had over the years with Bill and Hillary Clinton - including the Whitewater investigation and his pursuit of the fugitive Marc Rich - and what really occurred when he found himself in charge of the Hillary Clinton email investigation. Comey lays out exactly what went into the FBI's historic decisions and responds to the controversies and criticisms that resulted. Finally, Comey explains his frustrating and occasionally bizarre encounters with the incoming president, Donald Trump, and why he was unable to give Trump the pledge of loyalty he demanded. Although his rebuff of the president would come at great personal price, it was a sacrifice he was compelled to make, because the alternative for the country was a cost too great to bear. In September 2013, President Barack Obama appointed James Comey to the position of Director of the FBI. In that capacity, he was responsible for overseeing the FBI's investigation of the Hillary Clinton email controversy. In 2017, James Comey was leading an investigation into Russian meddling in the presidential election of 2016. This was expanded to include investigations into possible collusion between Trump campaign officials and Russia. President Donald Trump dismissed Comey on May 9, 2017.

      2018., Hachette Books Call No: MYS Fic Bal   Edition: First edition.    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Series Title: Atlee Pine   Volume: 1Summary Note: Atlee Pine, an FBI special agent assigned to the remote wilds of the western United States. Ever since her twin sister was abducted by a notorious serial killer at age five, Atlee has spent her life hunting down those who hurt others. And she's the best at it. She could be one of the Bureau's top criminal profilers, if she didn't prefer catching criminals in the vast wilderness of the West to climbing the career ladder in the D.C. office. Her chosen mission is a lonesome one--but that suits her just fine. Now, Atlee is called in to investigate the mutilated carcass of a mule found in the Grand Canyon--and hopefully, solve the disappearance of its rider. But this isn't the only recent disappearance. In fact, it may be just the first clue, the key to unraveling a rash of other similar missing persons cases in the canyon.
