Holding the Line: Inside the Nation's Preeminent US Attorney's Office and Its Battle with the Trump Justice Department is a nonfiction book by former Manhattan U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman and published by Penguin Press on September 13, 2022.[1][2] Berman was fired by former President Trump.[3] In the book, Berman discusses "a range of conflicts he encountered with the [U.S.] Department of Justice during his tenure leading the Southern District of New York."[1] Hence, Berman chronicles the improprieties that were applied by the Trump administration to pressure his U.S. Attorney's office.[2] The author also gives in-depth specifics about cases, which his office prosecuted, such as Michael Cohen; Chris Collins; Michael Avenatti, and Jeffrey Epstein.[2]
