Finally the British cover-up of the century is exposed. What was the government hiding about a mysterious 2006 London death? Headlines called Alexander Litvinenko an ex-KGB spy. UK officials accused Vladimir Putin of his polonium poisoning. Acclaimed expert William Dunkerley discloses how none of that is demonstrably true. It was a hoax and cover story. Dunkerley explains what led to Litvinenko's becoming a media celebrity and key pawn in UK-Russia relations. Dunkerley exposes the unscrupulous work of Robert Owen, the rogue high court judge who was brought in to paper over the truth. In reality Livinenko was just a lowly Russian law officer who ran to London when he got crosswise of the law. But when Owen's report finally appeared, it naturally supported the nefarious UK side of the story. The London Guardian commissioned Dunkerley to review Owen's 2014 report. The newspaper headlined his analysis, "Six reasons you can't take the Litvinenko report seriously." Other books about this case echo the fabricated British allegations as if they were true. Now Dunkerley's groundbreaking findings set the record straight and shed light on the surprising mystery the UK tried to cover-up. His book, The Phony Litvinenko Murder, is a prequel that documents the media distortions in the immediate aftermath of Litvinenko's death, and shows that the London coroner never even ruled his passing a homicide.
