Book Review: American Kingpin

American Kingpin: The Epic Hunt for the Criminal Mastermind Behind the Silk RoadAmerican Kingpin: The Epic Hunt for the Criminal Mastermind Behind the Silk Road by Nick Bilton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A great example of how to do narrative nonfiction well. Luckily for the author, there were written records of huge numbers of online conversations and transactions that he was able to use. To that he has added the likely emotions and some imagined, but credible, conversations that took place in person rather than online. The result is a well-crafted page-turner.
