Seven Deadly Sins by David Walsh
My Pursuit of Lance Armstrong
A determined investigative journalist recounts his long, obsessive pursuit to expose a celebrated cyclist's use of performance-enhancing drugs, detailing the mounting evidence, institutional resistance, legal threats, and the personal and professional costs of speaking truth to power. He traces how years of denials, cover-ups, and intimidation were finally unraveled through documents, interviews, and dogged reporting, offering both a personal memoir of the pursuit and a critique of sports culture that enabled cheating. The narrative combines reportage, legal intrigue, and moral reflection on truth, hero-worship, and accountability in elite sport.
