Archival Summary & Scope

**NEW YORK TIMES & WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER**

**UPDATED** with new revelations following the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling on Trump v. Deutsche Bank.

Investigative journalist David Enrich unearths the shocking history of Deutsche Bank, the global financial institution entangled in unprecedented scandal. From its shadowed past financing Nazi Germany and propping up questionable developers, to its aggressive pursuit of Wall Street riches, Enrich exposes how Deutsche Bank systematically abandoned ethics and the law. This deeply researched exposé details the bank's manipulation of markets, aiding terrorist regimes, money laundering for Russian oligarchs, and its controversial decision to become Donald Trump's primary lender—a client almost every other bank rejected. Enrich also unravels the mystery surrounding the sudden death of senior executive Bill Broeksmit, a man who knew too much, painting a picture of a bank consumed by fear and criminality. More than a financial thriller, *Dark Towers* reveals how Deutsche Bank became the global face of financial recklessness, operating as a corporate weapon of mass destruction.
