Putin's People

If you have read Luke Harding's Mafia State, this book goes to the same territory but digs much deeper and is like an encyclopaedia of Putin's Russia, a huge list of names, businesses and their connections to each other and major events like assassinations, war in Ukraine, Crimean takeover and so on. This book also doesn't let western banks and tycoons to stay in the shades. It's a long and exhausting read but also impressive. The amount of background work done must be enormous!
