llrobinett 's review for:
I had no idea what to expect when I started this book. I had glanced at the cover, liked it, and did not realize it was non-fiction. It is sort of a memoir of Bill Browder, the man at the helm of the Hermitage Fund, who pioneered investing in Russia. The off-handed way that he mentioned jetting off to luxury vacations, visiting the most expensive houses in the world, etc., came off as a bit annoying, but the story of how he "took on" the Russian oligarchs was intriguing. Throughout the book, he seemed to have a love-hate relationship with Russia. Overall, the book was interesting, but not the "high finance, murder, and . . . fight for justice" I expected.
