Więcej o książce
A gripping political thriller unfolds around an American financier in Russia, whose principled tax attorney is murdered while he seeks to expose Kremlin corruption. Bill Browder's journey began in Chicago, moved through Stanford Business School, and led him to the cutthroat hedge fund world of the 1990s. In Moscow, he became the head of the largest investment fund after the Soviet Union's collapse, amassing a fortune. However, when he revealed the corrupt oligarchs plundering his investments, Vladimir Putin retaliated, expelling him from Russia in 2005. In 2007, law enforcement raided Browder's offices, stealing $230 million in taxes paid by his fund's companies. His attorney, Sergei Magnitsky, investigated and uncovered a vast criminal enterprise. After testifying against corrupt officials, Sergei was arrested and tortured for a year. On November 16, 2009, he was brutally killed by guards in a pre-trial detention center. This tragedy ignited Browder's relentless pursuit of justice for Sergei, revealing a massive cover-up linked to Putin. Blending financial intrigue, crime, and political activism, this narrative showcases one man's battle against overwhelming odds to effect change.
