It's a place of intrigue, corruption, political blackmail and, yes, romance. The Accidental Oligarch reveals how Ukraine's fate is intimately entangled with our own.After Yuri Yavlinsky is laid off from his job shoveling shit at the Kyiv Zoo, he is promptly arrested for failing to pay a 30 million tax bill. Yuri's ID had been used to create several offshore shell companies to hide the assets of the oligarch who is the principal backer of Ukraine's president. Dora Osatinskaya, the Ukrainian lawyer who heads an anti-corruption organization, persuades Yuri to retrieve the mogul's bank records used for money laundering. But Yuri doesn't stop there. Infuriated by the corruption that is sucking the life out of his country, he uses his wits and street smarts to hijack the companies and their billion dollars in assets. It takes an oligarch to fight an oligarch.The novel climaxes during the 2014 Euromaidan &quotRevolution of Dignity,&quot where Yuri and his band of savvy saboteurs fight oligarchs, the government, a cabal of mobsters and moguls, and stealth Russian forces, as they strive to save themselves and the battered country they believe in.8220This is both a literary page turner and an accurate portrayal of Ukraine8217s resistance to Russian aggression.,8221 Fox News8220a riveting retelling of the heroism of ordinary Ukrainian citizens whose thirst for democracy and freedom refused to be quenched,8221 USA Today8220Hoffman artfully begins with an inventively comic premise and from there constructs a complex and nuanced account of corruption in Ukraine. Raskolnovitch explains it plainly and powerfully: 8220Ukraine is very dangerous. Many scores to settle. Many gangs. There are powerful crime families. Some control ports, shipping, cars. Some liquor. Some prostitutes. Everyone wants to control politics.8221 The author deftly ties the briskly paced plot to the real political turbulence in Ukraine and paints an endearing tableau of the romance that blossoms between Yuri and Dora. While the story as a whole has a whiff of the fantastical about it, its ultimate implausibility doesn8217t undermine its dramatic energy. For those readers in search of an intelligently conceived portrayal of contemporary Ukraine as well as a gripping tale of political intrigue, this is an enticing option. An entertaining and edifying crime drama.&quotKirkus Review**The author is donating all profits from this book to Internews to help Ukrainian journalists**<br>
