Meet Blackwater USA, the world's most secretive and powerful mercenary firm and the fastest growing private army on the planet, with forces capable of carrying out regime change throughout the world. Blackwater was founded by an extreme right-wing fundamentalist Christian mega-millionaire ex-Navy Seal named Erik Prince, the scion of a wealthy conservative family that bankrolls far-right-wing causes.

This is the dark story of the rise of a powerful mercenary army, ranging from the blood-soaked streets of Fallujah to the hurricane-ravaged US gulf to Washington, D.C. where Blackwater executives are hailed as new heroes in the war on terror.
