The Dark Heart of Russia : A Journey Through Putin's Empire of Brutality

Summary: When Jonathan Fink studied Russian in university, he developed a passion for the country that seemed under Boris Yeltsin to throw off the shackles of repression. Thirty years later, he set out to uncover through interviews the real heart of Russia, a country besieged by unfathomable terrorism and deep-seated paranoia and where crime is scarcely ever met with punishment. 'The Dark Heart of Russia' shows that there is a need to look at the Kremlin's deeds and ignore their words as a rule to get to the truth. Contributors include Bill Browder, David Petraeus, and Luke Harding.
