The world watched as Putin was burried, expecting that his epoch would end. Instead, from the ashes of the “old guard,” there rise new leaders—young, ruthless, and terrifyingly effective. These heirs to the OGPU-NKVD-KGB-FSB machine are more cunning than their predecessors, wielding vast financial resources in order to fuel destabilization and terror across the globe. The chaos spreads—from Moscow’s corridors of power to the frozen tundras of Yakutia and the deserts of Uzbekistan, as well as to financial centers of Europe in Italy, France, and Switzerland. No corner of the world is safe from their reach. With his signature approach to the smallest details, Krasovytskyy crafted a geopolitical thriller that will keep readers on the edge of your seat all the way to the full stop. This is not just a story about political power—it’s a chilling warning about what happens when it is reborn in even darker hands.
