About the history of Russia throughout the entire reign of Vladimir Putin, from 2000 to 2015.

The book is based on documents, open sources and dozens of unique personal interviews that the author took with the actors from Vladimir Putin's inner circle.

When collected together, the facts, events, intrigues and opinions of the characters make up a complete picture of the life of the Kremlin, from which the logic of Vladimir Putin's metamorphosis becomes clear for the first time: how and why he turned from a liberal pro-Western president of the early 2000s into an authoritarian ruler and one of the most ardent opponents of the West.
