Red Notice

By Bill Browder

Categories: Biographies & Memoirs

Bill Browder went to Russia just after the breakup of the Soviet Union and made a fortune as an investor. But when he exposed corruption, he barely escaped with his life, and his Russian lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, was jailed and tortured to death. Part financial caper, part crime thriller, Red Notice tells how Browder became an accidental activist, campaigning for the US Magnitsky Act to punish those responsible, and making himself one of Vladimir Putin's most determined enemies.

• Andrew Ross Sorkin: “It is part John Grisham-like thriller, part business and political memoir... It’s a hard book to put down.”
• Shane Parrish: “Three things about this book. 1) Whoever ghost wrote this with Browder is a genius. Not only is the story crazy but the writing is exceptional — this is Michael Lewis like. 2) It was hard to actually put this book down. 3) If you like politics, financial crime, thrillers or conspiracies …. read it”
