Licensed to Lie: Exposing Corruption in the Department of Justice is the true story of the strong-arm, illegal, and unethical tactics used by headline-grabbing federal prosecutors in their narcissistic pursuit of power.

Sidney Powell served in the Department of Justice for ten years in Texas and Virginia under 9 United States Attorneys from both political parties. She has devoted her private practice to federal appeals for the past twenty years.

With the narrative style of a legal thriller, this true story captures the drama of the law, the real human costs and consequences of the corruption of justice, and cautions for anyone facing the Department of Injustice.
