JOHN SWEENEY - GEBRAUCHT KILLER IN THE KREMLIN ...

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER - NOW UPDATED WITH FOUR NEW CHAPTERS   'This swashbuckling
book is a furious attack on the Russian president. Killer in the Kremlin traces Putin's bloody
career... a life littered with corpses.' - THE TIMES    A gripping and explosive account of
Vladimir Putin's tyranny  charting his rise from spy to tsar  exposing the events that led to
his invasion of Ukraine and his assault on Europe.   In Killer in the Kremlin   award-winning
journalist John Sweeney takes readers from the heart of Putin's Russia to the killing fields of
Chechnya  to the embattled cities of an invaded Ukraine.  In a disturbing exposé of Putin's
sinister ambition  Sweeney draws on thirty years of his own reporting - from the Moscow
apartment bombings to the atrocities committed by the Russian Army in Chechnya  to the
annexation of Crimea and a confrontation with Putin over the shooting down of flight MH17 - to
understand the true extent of Putin's long war.  Drawing on eyewitness accounts and compelling
testimony from those who have suffered at Putin's hand  we see the heroism of the Russian
opposition  the bravery of the Ukrainian resistance  and the brutality with which the Kremlin
responds to such acts of defiance  assassinating or locking away its critics  and stopping at
nothing to achieve its imperialist aims.  In the midst of one of the darkest acts of aggression
in modern history - Russia's invasion of Ukraine - this book shines a light on Putin's rule and
poses urgent questions about how the world must respond.  'An extraordinarily prescient and
fascinating book.' - NIHAL ARTHANAYAKE   Instant Sunday Times bestseller  March 2023
