    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: [email protected]; 646-307-5314 [email protected]; 646-307-5571 ANDREW MCCABE TO PUBLISH BOOK WITH ST. MARTIN’S PRESS IN DECEMBER 2018. THE THREAT: HOW THE FBI PROTECTS AMERICA IN THE AGE OF TERROR AND TRUMP (NEW YORK, NY – September 18, 2018) -- Andrew McCabe will publish a book entitled THE THREAT: How the FBI Protects America in the Age of Terror and Trump with St. Martin’s Press on December 4, 2018, it was announced today by Jennifer Enderlin, Executive Vice President and Publisher of St. Martin’s. North American publishing rights were acquired by St. Martin’s Press Vice President and Editor in Chief, George Witte, from literary agents David Granger and Todd Shuster of Aevitas Creative Management, who represent the author. The book will be available in hardcover, ebook, and audio formats. On March 16, 2018, just 26 hours before his scheduled retirement from the organization he had served with distinction for nearly 22 years, and after sustained and unprecedented public attacks from the President of the United States, Andrew McCabe was fired from his position as Deputy Director of the FBI. Now in THE THREAT, McCabe will share a candid account of his career and an impassioned defense of the FBI’s agents, integrity, and independence in protecting America and upholding our Constitution. “We are thrilled and honored to be publishing Andrew McCabe’s book -- destined to be a seminal record of our times,” says Jennifer Enderlin. “THE THREAT will be candid, dramatic, and urgently newsworthy.” McCabe's career encompasses and reflects the modern history of the FBI, and its transformation from a corps of cops who investigated and prosecuted crime into an intelligence agency that prevents and deters attacks on American citizens.
