The girding proved unnecessary as Dark Money simply doesn't ring true. Go to Full Review Alastair McKay London Evening Standard 07/12/2019
Much of the writer's effort seems to be invested in the question of who should shoulder the burden of the guilt. Go to Full Review Rachel Cooke New Statesman 07/11/2019
