Godfather of the Kremlin

by Paul Klebnikov

It's a tale about how businessmen and criminals made billions during and after the collapse of the Soviet Union, at the expense of people living in Russia. It's also worth noting that the author was murdered in Moscow a couple years after this book was published.
