As a senior official of the CIA, he had thought Congressional oversight was the highest form of retribution. He never considered postmortem accountability. Enter Virgil, an obnoxious and expired polygraph examiner, who sends flat Shelby on a backwards journey through the events leading up to the terrorist attack that killed him. Who was responsible? Who dropped the ball? The answers are not the sort likely to surface in a Senate hearing room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Flat Bureaucrat\u003c\/em\u003e is the stand-alone sequel to Susan Hasler's hilarious and terrifying first novel, \u003cem\u003e Intelligence\u003c\/em\u003e.
