Brief description:
It’s 1991, the Soviet Union has just collapsed, and a new democratic government is beginning to emerge. Alex Konevitch, who was thrown out of Moscow University in 1987 for indulging his entrepreneurial spirit, is now worth $300 million and is a major financial supporter of the new government. In a country where greed and corruption run rampant and wealth is stolen,not earned, he is on track to become both Russia’s wealthiest man — and a huge target.
Then top executives in his company start getting brutally murdered.,one by one, and Alex makes a critical mistake: He hires the former deputy director of the KGB to handle his corporate security. Kidnapped, beaten, and forced to relinquish his business and his fortune by those hired to protect him, Alex manages to escape to the United States with his wife, only to be accused by his own government of stealing millions from his business.
With a contract out on his life and the FBI hot on his trail, Alex is the number one most-wanted fugitive in Russia. He is a man on the run with no country to call home. And he must elude the bounty on his head and prove his innocence . . .if he is ever to build a new life for himself and his family.
