A gripping investigative account of how Russia's spies helped elect Donald Trump, backed Brexit, murdered enemies and threatened the very basis of western democracy.

From the award-winning journalist and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Collusion

'Luke Harding is one of the best reporters in the world.' - Robert Saviano

'[Collusion is] a superb piece of work ... essential reading for anyone who cares for his country.' - John Le Carre

The operatives come in disguise. They pose as tourists, journalists and businessmen. Utterly ruthless, sometimes bungling and always ambitious, they roam from Salisbury to Helsinki, Ukraine to the Central African Republican, London to Washington. Shadow State is a riveting and alarming investigation into those spies and the way Russia has used them to wage an increasingly bold war in the UK and beyond.

The Kremlin has attempted to reshape politics in their own mould; the future of Western democracy is at stake as a result.
