J. Edgar Hoover & Clyde Tolson

Darwin Porter's saga of power and corruption has a revelation on every page-cross dressing, gay parties, sexual indiscretions, hustlers for sale, alliances with the Mafia, criminal activity by the FBI, and an obsessive and voyeuristic interest in the sex lives of Hollywood celebrities. It's all here, with chilling details about the abuse of power on the dark side of the American saga. But mostly, it's the decades-long love story of American law enforcement officers who were so powerful that they could tell presidents how to skip rope (Hoover's words).
