By Misha Glenny
Archival Summary & Scope
"This extraordinarily powerful book demonstrates how utterly we lack the shared supranational tools needed to fight cybercrime. Essential reading." —Roberto Saviano, author of *Gomorrah*In *DarkMarket*, Misha Glenny, acclaimed author of *McMafia*, presents an urgent investigation into the three critical digital threats of our era: cybercrime, cyberwarfare, and cyberindustrial espionage.

Traveling the globe, Glenny delves into the real-world stories behind the notorious DarkMarket website, interviewing a diverse cast of characters—from criminals and geeks to police and victims—to expose the political, economic, and historical forces shaping our digital vulnerabilities.
