Description

November 2009. In a Moscow prison, eight policemen beat Sergei Magnitsky to death. What was his crime? The young lawyer testified against officials from the Ministry of Internal Affairs who had embezzled 230 million dollars, which had been paid to the state by one of the most successful hedge funds. This brutal murder essentially remains uninvestigated and unpunished. In Red Notice, Bill Browder, the man who hired the victim, documents exactly how the Russian authorities covered up the case and delves deep into the dark heart of the Kremlin to uncover its guilty secrets. The author takes us on an explosive journey, from the intoxicating world of the stock market in New York and London in the '90s, to his own battles with ruthless oligarchs in the turbulent post-Soviet landscape, and his expulsion from Russia, ordered by Vladimir Putin himself. The gripping narrative also highlights his transformation from an investor to a human rights activist fighting for justice. A political thriller, completely true, filled with corruption, bribery, fraud, and torture. "Red Notice reads like a thriller, but it is absolutely true, a real and important story, an inspiring story. Bill Browder is an incredible moral activist and his book must be read by anyone who wants to understand today's Russia, Putin, or the challenges faced by a businessman in our time." WALTER ISAACSON "A must-read, it offers an insightful look into the stark reality of the Putin regime, which gains even more significance due to Bill Browder's unique expertise and personal experience inside the belly of the beast." GARRY KASPAROV "It gripped me like a classic thriller, with a hero who is an ordinary man left all alone and in danger in a hostile and unfamiliar city... But Red Notice is a 100% true story from real life, a story that needed to be told." LEE CHILD "A visceral narrative, a passionate flanking attack against the Kremlin." The Financial Times "Compelling and shocking." The New York Times Book Review
