Award-winning author James Montague has taken an in-depth look at how the murder of Saudi journalist and dissident Jamal Khashoggi sped up Saudi Arabia's involvement and investment in sport. Following the blueprint of other Gulf states, sport has been used to repair Saudi PM Mohammed bin Salman's reputation.
The result is Engulfed, How Saudi Arabia Bought Sport, and the World.
James Montague has reported regularly for the New York Times, BBC World Service and CNN and is a two-time winner of Football Book of the Year at the British Sports Book of the Year Awards.
