Bob Woodward was 26-years-old, a Navy Lieutenant, bored, and uncertain of his future when in 1969, in the basement of the Nixon White House, he met W. Mark Felt, a senior FBI official. Out of this chance encounter and subsequent developments, a hidden psychological drama developed that resulted in Nixon’s resignation and forever marked the lives of these three men. It involved issues of worthy and unworthy father figures, generational loyalties, and ego ideals.
