About the book

Varyag is one of the toughest bosses, the keeper of the common fund and now also Overseer of Russia. But a prison is a prison, in the States or in Russia. Any convict here can stick a knife in your back or strangle you at night. All the more so because a choice prize is at stake: two large factories, and the fight around them, with Varyag as the key figure. Only an animal instinct for danger and considerable prison experience save him from the Americans and from his own thugs, and from those who direct them. But for a thief-in-law life is not the main thing. Honor is. And here Varyag cannot be broken: he will endure it all, the icy punishment cell, the merciless fights, the provocations of the guards, but he will not let a thief's honor fall. Only so will he win his freedom. And then we shall see who beats whom...
