"As a New York Times bestselling author and one of the world's foremost investigative reporters on Antifa and left-wing extremism, Andy Ngo has spent years tracking the rise of violent ideologies that the mainstream media struggles to acknowledge. Now, he turns his investigative focus to an even more elusive, mysterious and dangerous threat: the secretive cult of "Ziz," a transgender leftist anarchist group linked to violent deaths, including the killing of a U.S. Border Patrol agent and a key trial witness. With exclusive access to court records, witnesses, and family members, and through deep-dive investigative reporting, Ngo unravels the chilling story of how a fringe online movement transformed into a real-world, international violent cult. Through meticulous research and on-the-ground reporting, he exposes the cult's ideology, recruitment tactics, and its connection to broader radical leftist movements. As authorities scramble to track down the group's fugitive members, Ngo pieces together the cult's deadly footprint from alleged assassinations and execution-style killings, positing how its computer science "genius" leader, the enigmatic Jack LaSota-known as "Ziz"-manipulates followers. This book is not just an expose´-it is a warning. As gender extremism and leftist ideologies continue to radicalize and grow unchecked, America faces the risk of more groups like the Ziz cult emerging. With law enforcement hamstrung by political pressure and mainstream media refusing to investigate, Ngo stands alone in sounding the alarm. His fearless reporting has already changed the national conversation on Antifa. Now, he delivers the definitive account of one of the most shocking and underreported violent threats in America today"-- Provided by publisher.
