520    #1 WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER * NEW YORK TIMES 
       BESTSELLER     New York Times     finance editor David 
       Enrich's   explosive exposé of the most scandalous 
       bank in the world, revealing its shadowy ties to Donald 
       Trump, Putin's Russia, and Nazi Germany    "A jaw-dropping
       financial thriller" —Philadelphia Inquirer    On a 
       rainy Sunday in 2014, a senior executive at Deutsche Bank 
       was found hanging in his London apartment. Bill Broeksmit 
       had helped build the 150-year-old financial institution 
       into a global colossus, and his sudden death was a mystery,
       made more so by the bank's efforts to deter investigation.
       Broeksmit, it turned out, was a man who knew too much.   
       In Dark Towers, award-winning journalist David Enrich 
       reveals the truth about Deutsche Bank and its epic path of
       devastation. Tracing the bank's history back to its 
       propping up of a default-prone American developer in the 
       1880s, helping the Nazis build Auschwitz, and wooing 
       Eastern Bloc authoritarians, he shows how in the 1990s, 
       via a succession of hard-charging executives, Deutsche 
       made a fateful decision to pursue Wall Street riches, 
       often at the expense of ethics and the law.  Soon, the 
       bank was manipulating markets, violating international 
       sanctions to aid terrorist regimes, scamming investors, 
       defrauding regulators, and laundering money for Russian 
       oligarchs. Ever desperate for an American foothold, 
       Deutsche also started doing business with a self-promoting
       real estate magnate nearly every other bank in the world 
       deemed too dangerous to touch: Donald Trump. Over the next
       twenty years, Deutsche executives loaned billions to Trump,
       the Kushner family, and an array of scandal-tarred clients,
       including convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.   Dark 
       Towers is the never-before-told saga of how Deutsche Bank 
       became the global face of financial recklessness and 
       criminality—the corporate equivalent of a weapon of 
       mass destruction. It is also the story of a man who was 
       consumed by fear of what he'd seen at the bank—and 
       his son's obsessive search for the secrets he kept.
