2023·304 pages·Nonfiction
“In explaining the rise to power of Kim Yo Jong, Lee displays his deep knowledge and understanding of North Korea's extreme, ruthless and self-obsessed dynastic autocracy, the creators and rulers of a de-facto nuclear weapon state. Not a reassuring story”
— Sir John Scarlett, former Chief of the Secret Intelligence Service (MI6)
“An incisive portrayal of North Korea's "princess", Kim Yo Jong, but also a chilling portrait of a family dynasty that has oppressed and exploited North Korea for generation after generation”
— Max Boot, Washington Post columnist, author and senior fellow, Council on Foreign Relations
