"When Bill Browder's young Russian lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky,  
was beaten to death in a Moscow jail, Browder made it his  
life's mission to go after his killers and make sure they faced  
justice. The first step of that mission was to uncover who was  
behind the $230 million tax refund scheme that Magnitsky was  
killed over. As Browder and his team tracked the money as it  
flowed out of Russia through the Baltics and Cyprus and on to  
Western Europe and the Americas, they were shocked to discover  
that Vladimir Putin himself was a beneficiary of the crime.

"As law enforcement agencies began freezing the money, Putin
retaliated. He and his cronies set up honey traps, hired
process servers to chase Browder through cities, murdered more
of his Russian allies, and enlisted some of the top lawyers and
politicians in America to bring him down. Putin will stop at
nothing to protect his money. As Freezing Order reveals, it was
Browder's campaign to expose Putin's corruption that prompted
Russia's intervention in the 2016 US presidential election.

"At once a financial caper, an international adventure, and a
passionate plea for justice, Freezing Order is a stirring
morality tale about how one man can take on one of the most
ruthless villains in the world - and win.
