Robert Mueller could get $10M book deal

Published March 25, 2019 8:38pm ET



Special counsel Robert Mueller is poised to receive a book deal worth over $1 million, or more than $10 million if he promises significant revelations from his two-year investigation of President Trump, leading literary agents told the Washington Examiner.

Mueller, 74, was a Vietnam War hero, director of the FBI from 2001 to 2013, and briefly had a lucrative private-sector career before taking a government salary of $161,900 to investigate Trump — ultimately finding no collusion with Russia. Famously tight-lipped and shy of the limelight, he has given no signal he wants to write about his life or work.
