Well, when I sat down to write the book, I started by thinking about it.

Having read a lot of books about Watergate, I thought it was going to be really necessary

to have it inside account, as opposed to people from the outside speculating about what

happened.

Mrs. Andrew Weisman, a former top-level prosecutor for the Special Counsel's Office.

This book is We're Law Ends, inside the Mueller investigation.

It marks the first time anyone on Robert Mueller's team has spoken in detail about the mechanics

of the investigation.

But as I wrote it, as much as I do talk about the challenges coming from the White House

and from Attorney General Barr and the challenge of dealing with a target who has the power

to fire us and had the power to pardon or dangle the pardons, I realized that I really

wanted to be completely candid and forthright about how we met those challenges and realized

I was going to have to write a harder book that looked at what we did well and what we

didn't do as well.

Mueller divided his investigators into three groups, Team M, focused on Paul Manafort, Team

R for Russia, and Team 600, which was looking into the possible obstruction of justice by

the president.

In his book Weisman writes about the decisions Mueller made to try and play by the rules,

while Trump clearly was not.

Weisman is particularly critical of Mueller's decision not to subpoena Trump.

In the end Weisman says Trump used the system against itself to block a full accounting.
