An investigative journalist's deep dive into the corrupt workings of the world's kleptocrats, from ruined towns on the edge of Siberia, to Bond-villain lairs in London and Manhattan, as more and more governments are run by corrupt leaders who prosper at the expense of their people, in a world where the stateless super-rich (and their awful children) abide by no laws, and in which the institutions of Europe and the United States have become money-laundering operations, putting the stability of Western industrial democracies under attack, while heroic activists around the world are fighting back.
