As Browder and his team tracked the money as it flowed out of Russia through the Baltics and Cyprus and on to Western Europe and the Americas, they were shocked to discover that Vladimir Putin himself was a beneficiary of the crime. As law enforcement agencies began freezing the money, Putin retaliated. He and his cronies set up honey traps, hired process servers to chase Browder through cities, murdered more of his Russian allies, and enlisted some of the top lawyers and politicians in America to bring him down"--Publisher marketing.

Rezensionen
'I was hooked from the first paragraph. More explosive, compulsive and gasp-inducingly, spine-tinglingly, mouth-dryingly, heart-poundingly thrilling than any fiction I have read for years, Freezing Order has a stunning plot - international conspiracy, malign and hidden rings of power and corruption, a dark threat to any hope of world order - but with this stunning twist: it is all true... Browder - with incredible courage, resilience and grace, and always at great risk to his personal safety and freedom - continues to chase after Putin and his henchmen... This is real heroism, and what a cracking good read it makes for.' Stephen Fry
