Michael Wolff
Michael Wolff, author of the bombshell bestseller Fire and Fury, once again takes us inside the Trump presidency to reveal a White House under siege.
Just one year into Donald Trump’s term as president, Michael Wolff told the electrifying story of a White House consumed by controversy, chaos, and intense rivalries. Fire and Fury, an instant sensation, defined the first phase of the Trump administration; now, in Siege, Wolff has written an equally essential and explosive book about a presidency that is under fire from almost every side.
At the outset of Trump’s second year as president, his situation is profoundly different. No longer tempered by experienced advisers, he is more impulsive and volatile than ever. But the wheels of justice are inexorably turning: Robert Mueller’s “witch hunt” haunts Trump every day, and other federal prosecutors are taking a deep dive into his business affairs. Many in the political establishment—even some members of his own administration—have turned on him and are dedicated to bringing him down. The Democrats see victory at the polls, and perhaps impeachment, in front of them. Trump, meanwhile, is certain he is invincible, making him all the more exposed and vulnerable. Week by week, as Trump becomes increasingly erratic, the question that lies at the heart of his tenure becomes ever more urgent: Will this most abnormal of presidencies at last reach the breaking point and implode?
Both a riveting narrative and a brilliant front-lines report, Siege provides an alarming and indelible portrait of a president like no other. Surrounded by enemies and blind to his peril, Trump is a raging, self-destructive inferno—and the most divisive leader in American history.
Nice summary of Woodward et alt not more

Essentially it's written for the politically informed US reader.
Wolff writes in a hugely entertaining style and weaves quotes into a breathlessly compelling narrative. Holter Graham, the reader, is at best channeling the spirit of Steve Bannon! Some parts were brilliant even though I didn't really know who the people were...
While a complex range of characters are presented, Wolff focuses on a different personality/ies in each chapter, something which helps the reader follow. I'd recommend checking who's who on WIkipedia too, while listening.
I read Fire and Fury and I'll certainly be moving onto the third one.
Entertaining despite confusing at times!
