BESTSELLING author Sarah Kendzior delves into the
difference between conspiracy and conspiracy theory, deftly
separat[ing] fact from fiction in a conspiracy-addled nation
(VANITY FAIR).The topics covered in this audiobook may be
rough going for listeners, but the author's commitment to
sounding the alarm will keep them glued to their earbuds.-
AudioFileConspiracy theories are on the rise because officials
refuse to enforce accountability for real conspiracies. Uncritical
faith in broken institutions is as dangerous as false narratives
peddled by propagandists.The truth may hurt&#8212bu the
lies will kill us. They Knew discusses conspiracy culture in a

rapidly declining United States struggling with corruption,
climate change, and other crises. As the actions of the
powerful remain shrouded in mystery&#8212#8220From
Norman Baker to Jeffrey Epstein, Iran-Contra to January 6
(VF)&#8212itis unsurprising that people turn to conspiracy
theories to fill the informational void. They Knew exposes the
tactics these powerful actors use to placate an inquisitive
public.Here, for the first time, Kendzior blends her signature
whip-smart prose and eviscerating arguments with lyrical and
intimate examinations of the times and places that haunt
American history. America is a ghost story, states Kendzior, as
she unearths decades of buried history, providing an essential
and critical look at how to rebuild our democracy by
confronting the political lies and crimes that have shaped us. A
