This week on Whale Hunting, Bradley Hope is joined by Alex Finley, former CIA operations officer and author of the Victor Caro book series. While researching her third book, Victor in Trouble, she discovered a newfound interest in the superyachts of the ultrawealthy – including Russian oligarchs – and began to investigate further into this murky world. In this episode, Alex and Bradley discuss the problems with seizing sanctioned yachts, why real-life spycraft is about relationships, not car chases, and how there are some surprising similarities between the work of journalists and spooks.
