Freezing Order:A True Story of Russian Money Laundering, Murder,and Surviving Vladimir Putin's Wrath |
For those prepared to be horrified, and confirmed in their opinion that the Russian state is indeed in the hands of an evil emperor and his retinue, this book is a staggering testimony. It is the true story of the pursuit of an individual who uncovered and reported large-scale money laundering, murder and revenge, implicating not just the oligarchs, but Putin himself. I agree with Stephen Fry that this book has a stunning plot, real heroism and is a cracking read.

Red Notice: How I Became Putin's No. 1 Enemy |
Browder - an American with huge investments in Russia - discovered that a large amount of tax he had paid had been stolen by the Russians. His lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, investigating the case was arrested and murdered by the corrupt police. Divesting himself of his funds, Browder has devoted his life to bringing justice to his slain friend and persuaded Congress to pass The Magnitsky Act which to Putin's fury blacklists the culprits. Browder now lives in London under protection. A riveting account of a corrupt and venal regime.
