   "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.
