Isn't there a book ...Shadow Government?

Found one:

Shadow Government: The Hidden World of Public Authorities-And How They Control over $1 Trillion of Your Money (Paperback)
by Donald Axelrod (Author)

[BIGLOOK]

Good morning, Ernest.
Hate to think of a Shadow Government....too conspiratorial... but career holdovers from previous administrations in State, the CIA, Justice and other bureaucracies have been causing the Bush administration problems since the beginning. We know some of their names and discover new ones regularly; Wilson, Plame, Berger the Archivist and lately the authors of this NIE.

'A new broom sweeps clean' is a little ditty the GWB ignored and now he has a mess in his house.
