Now that Andrei's business interests are legitimate, he never talks about how he made his millions. But when he is kidnapped by his estranged son Victor, who will stop at nothing to get answers, he is forced to reveal his secrets.

Set against the backdrop of Russia's turbulent recent past - from the Soviet Union's fall to Putin's rise - this slick thriller explores the period which gave birth to the now infamous 'oligarchs'.
