Hunting the Banker: On Corruption Scandals, Major Frauds and Contract Killings

The book “Fall Bomb”: Alexander Lebedev’s revelations about corruption, billion-dollar swindles, and “dirty money” that smells of blood.

Entrepreneur and public figure Alexander Lebedev, in a work of artistic journalism, recalls his life path — from serving in London in foreign intelligence to serving corrective labor in a Tula village by court sentence for a brawl with the businessman Sergey Polonsky on the NTV channel.

The author opens to the listener different sides of the life of the Russian and global political and business elite. He tells about his relationships with leading politicians, businessmen, and cultural figures in Russia and abroad; he investigates corruption scandals, multimillion-dollar schemes, and contract killings.

Alexander Lebedev comes to the conclusion that humanity has faced the Third Colonialism — world domination by offshore oligarchy that controls tens of trillions of dollars stolen every year in different countries around the world. The author offers a recipe for curing civilization of this financially malignant tumor.
