Nermozo
Bob Kim, a young American commodity trader, minutes after his arrival in a grisly Moscow hotel to marry Nadia, his fiancée, finds himself embroiled in a plot to steal a nuclear bomb design and a consignment of enriched uranium. To save her from the pervasive lawlessness of the early 90ies, he has to take a perilous journey across the crumbling former USSR to Central Asia, then to Switzerland and back to Eastern Europe. Written by an eye witness, this is the first-hand account of a road trip across the world that is now largely gone, a protracted painful negotiation with larger-than-life characters whose lavish tombstones these days bring back memories of how fortunes were made and lost in the ghost mining towns and Swiss executive boardrooms.
