  • Summary

  • Audible Originals presents After the Fall, the incredible true story of the FBI’s groundbreaking investigation into the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The series also marks the 20th anniversary of the deadliest crime in modern US history. Most Americans say 9/11 is the most significant historical event of their lives. It shocked a suddenly vulnerable nation, killed 3,000 people, and led to the longest war in US history. But for the FBI, 9/11 was also a crime. Dozens of agents at the forefront of the case tell in their own words how they uncovered evidence to prove who was behind the attacks, reconstruct the “planes operation,” interrogate terrorism suspects, prevent more attacks, and wrestle with the question of whether 9/11 itself could have been stopped. 9/11 nearly broke the FBI in two. But the investigation into 9/11 transformed the bureau into an agency that prioritized counterterrorism. It influenced the War in Afghanistan, led to a rift with the CIA about using torture to gather intelligence, and generated thousands of boxes of evidence for prosecutions in US courts - most of which have never occurred. In this riveting series, agents tell their story from the perspective of being in the field, in the moment, as they work in extraordinary circumstances, against unparalleled problems, and face the highest stakes. From the crime scenes in lower Manhattan, the Pentagon, and in Shanksville, the investigation unfolds in unexpected places: a mechanics’ garage, Fresh Kills landfill, a prison in Sanaa, Yemen, a ticket booth in Kandahar, Afghanistan, a safe house in Faisalabad, Pakistan, and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The FBI’s investigation into 9/11 is an essential part of the history of the September 11th terrorist attacks. -- After the Fall is dedicated to the many victims of the 9/11 attacks, including those who suffered from cancer and other illnesses because of their work at Ground Zero, the Pentagon, and in Shanksville.

Excellent

More like this please. Well written, narrated, researched and produced. Left politics aside and just told the story from the FBI point of action. I never write reviews, but had to with this one. Bravo!

Amazing narrative

Behind scenes with dedicated FBI heroes. Getting Ali Soufan's book. "Thank you " is woefully inadequate

Raw, Detailed Account of the Tragedy-Crime

These were outstanding. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to these, but not to say the subject wasn't difficult. It is.. I learned a lot more than I thought I'd learn, than I needed to learn. Incredible detail, made me feel as if I was among these heroes. A must-read! Thank you.

Wow just wow!

Most people knew where they were on 9/11 but I for one never realized the extent and monumental effort put forth by the FBI and the rest of those who worked post the event to keep our country safe.

excellent deep dive into USG intelligence response

riveting chronology excellent narrator and voices of those who lived the experience. Major analysis of the role of the FBI and the wall between it and CIA that led to the intelligence failure.

What an awesome reminder!

I remember thinking at 17 - someone is trying to start WWIII. I was terrified as I watched the towers fall and heartbroken for our country. Hearing it from the agents themselves with clips from prior presidential speeches, felt like I was there again, 20 years ago- saddened for all the children and loved ones left behind by all the fallen.

Impactful

This is 911 told primarily though the eyes of the FBI. Hear the incredible details of the men and women who went great lengths and distance to find the 911 terrorists. The intent was always justice. I gained great insight and admiration for those who worked tirelessly for my safety. I also discovered profound disappointment and sadness. This series is beautifully compiled and, dare I say, timely. Worth every minute of your time.
