Review

"In this true account that has more spy action than some Tom Clancy novels, we get double-crossing, dirty dealing, lying, conniving, and wiretapping...and that's just the FBI agent and his informant....The phantasmagoric story behind the so-called "Supermarket to the world, and it will certainly change the way you look at your grocery bill. It may also change the way you think about your neighbors when a strange car pulls into their driveway.""

Publisher's note

An investigative reporter offers a true story of corruption and crime as he profiles a senior executive within a politically powerful American company, Archer Daniels Midland, who serves as a government informant to uncover a vast conspiracy while embezzling millions of dollars from the company for himself. Reissue. (A Warner Bros. film, written by Scott Z. Burns, directed by Steven Soderbergh, releasing March 2009, starring Matt Damon) (Business)

Annotation

This fast-paced legal history recounts the undercover FBI investigation of a multinational corporation and the unusual relationship between the federal agents and their zealous informant--a senior executive hiding misdeeds of his own. This story of price fixing at Archer Daniels Midland Company, a major supplier of popular food additives, highlights the scandal's most colorful players and pivotal moments as it reveals the often overlooked impact of corporate crime.
