In the run-up to the 1972 elections, Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward
covers what seems to be a minor break-in at the Democratic Party National
headquarters. He is surprised to find top lawyers already on the defence
case, and the discovery of names and addresses of Republican fund
organisers on the accused further arouses his suspicions. The editor of the
Post is prepared to run with the story and assigns Woodward and Carl
Bernstein to it. They find the trail leading higher and higher in the Republican
Party, and eventually into the White House itself.
