520    "MBS is the untold story of how a mysterious young prince 
       emerged from Saudi Arabia's sprawling royal family to 
       overhaul the economy and society of the richest country in
       the Middle East--and gather as much power as possible into
       his own hands. Since his father, King Salman, ascended to 
       the throne in 2015, Mohammed bin Salman has leveraged his 
       influence to restructure the kingdom's economy, loosen its
       strict Islamic social codes, and confront its enemies 
       around the region, especially Iran. That vision won him 
       fans at home and on Wall Street, in Silicon Valley, in 
       Hollywood, and at the White House, where President Trump 
       embraced the prince as a key player in his own vision for 
       the Middle East. But over time, the sheen of the visionary
       young reformer has become tarnished, leaving many 
       struggling to determine whether MBS is in fact a rising 
       dictator whose inexperience and rash decisions are 
       destabilizing the world's most volatile region. Based on 
       years of reporting and hundreds of interviews, MBS reveals
       the machinations behind the kingdom's catastrophic 
       military intervention in Yemen, the bizarre detention of 
       princes and businessmen in the Riyadh Ritz-Carlton, and 
       the shifting Saudi relationships with Israel and the 
       United States. And finally, it sheds new light on the 
       greatest scandal of the young autocrat's rise: the brutal 
       killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi by Saudi agents in 
       Istanbul, a crime that shook Saudi Arabia's relationship 
       with Washington and left the world wondering whether MBS 
       could get away with murder. MBS is a riveting, eye-opening
       account of how the young prince has wielded vast powers to
       reshape his kingdom and the world around him"--|cProvided
