Mr. Fitzgerald did not like the title.

Triple Cross: How bin Laden's Master Spy Penetrated the CIA, the Green Berets, and the FBI--and Why Patrick Fitzgerald Failed to Stop Him.

Something about it being too long. :)

“The book lied about the facts and alleged that I deliberately misled courts and the public in ways that in part caused the deaths in the 1998 embassy bombing attacks and in the attacks of September 11, 2001,” Fitzgerald said in an e-mail Monday.

Fitzgerald grew up in New York, where he made a name prosecuting terrorists. Lance’s book accuses him and other top officials in 1996 of discrediting “a treasure trove of al-Qaida-related evidence,” including information of a bin Laden plot to hijack a plane, according to a news release on the book. The book also accuses Fitzgerald of filing a false court affidavit involving terror investigations.
