Freezing Order: A True Story of Money Laundering, Murder, and Surviving Vladimir Putin's Wrath by Bill Browder

adventurous challenging informative inspiring medium-paced

5.0

I completely disagree with the Wall Street Journal review of this book (WSJ, "Freezing Order review: Putin's No. 1 Problem?" May 4, 2022); I found it just as complelling as Browder's first book, Red Notice.  WSJ says it has "a great deal of filler . . . of little interest." Couldn't disagree more.  This book is filled with details of the criminal operations of Russia and Vladimir Putin and his oligarchy.  The west should should never trust Russia again.  The kind of history Browder uncovers goes back centuries in Russia and in my opinion puts the country beyond redemption.
