This is the story of one man's 25-year journey from Stanford Business School to ultra-successful hedge fund manager to human rights activist. This is also the story of one particularly brave Russian lawyer who made the ultimate sacrifice in his fight for justice. Although (in my opinion) no government is completely free of corruption, Bill Browder lays out in excruciating and heartbreaking detail the extent of corruption, lawlessness, and human rights abuses in today's Russia. Browder strongly believes that Vladimir Putin or members of his regime will have him killed one day. Once you read this book, you will understand why Browder's fear is very much justified, and why we should all be worried.

This is an outstanding book. It is non fiction but reads like a great novel. This book gives great insight into how the Russian government really operates and the price a person can pay for interfering with the system. Browder lays it all out and writes the playbook on how to fight back.

While this book reads like a thriller it needs to be stated this is not a true story.
Sergei Magnitsky was Browder's accountant, not his lawyer. Browder admits this under oath in a deposition.
Browder also admits to admiring Putin while being filmed for a documentary that is available online.
