Book Description
After awakening from its long communist slumber, Russia in the 1990s was a place where everything and everyone was for sale, and fortunes could be made and lost overnight. Into this free-market maelstrom stepped rookie Wall Street Journal reporter Matthew Brzezinski, who was immediately pulled into the mad world of Russian capitalism -- where corrupt bankers and fast-talking American carpetbaggers presided over the biggest boom and bust in financial history. Brzezinski's adventures take him from the solid-gold bathroom fixtures of Moscow's elite, to the last stop on the Trans-Siberian railway, where poverty-stricken citizens must buy water by the pail from the local crime lord, and back to civilization, to stumble into a drunken birthday bash for an ultra-nationalist politico. It's an irreverent, lurid, and hilarious account of one man's tumultuous trek through a capitalist market gone haywire -- and a nation whose uncertain future is marked by boundless hope and foreboding despair.

Book Description
It has been several years since the author, Willy Mitchell, was in East Africa and visited a bar in Malindi, Kenya. He overheard the rumblings of a coup-in-the-making without any idea that one day in the future, a similar plan would be hatched. Now, years later, Mitch’s daughter, Bella, has followed in her father’s footsteps where he served in the British Special Air Service, and joined the CIA, where she has transformed into a rising star. Russian villain Dimitri Dankov has already sought revenge after a failed assassination attempt. Bella and the team of Mitch, Mac, Bob, and Sam, with Colonel Collins and Lord Beecham, discover that the leading Mexican drug cartels have partnered with Russian dark forces to take over Equatorial Guinea in an attempt to win influence in Africa and transform the cartel’s dirty money into good. Bella and Mitch lead the charge against the dark forces hidden under the veil of Maskirovka. But what can they do to change this course of events? In this tale of intrigue, money laundering at the highest level, and corruption, a rising CIA star, her father, and their team find themselves drawn into a complex plot involving greedy oil executives, drug cartels, and the Russian underworld from taking over an oil-rich African nation.
