Fiction. Mystery. Suspense. Thriller. In 1987, Alex Konevitch was thrown out of Moscow University for "indulging his entrepreneurial spirit." But by 1991, he was worth $300 million. On track to become Russia's wealthiest man, he makes one critical mistake: he hires the former deputy director of the KGB to handle his corporate security. And then his world begins to fall apart. Kidnapped, beaten, and forced to relinquish his business and his fortune, Alex and his wife escape to the United States, only to be accused by his own government of stealing millions from his business. With a mob contract out on his life and the FBI hot on his trail, Alex is a desperate man without a country-facing the ultimate sacrifice for the chance to build a new life for himself and his family.… (plus d'informations)

Fictionalized account of real life events of the 1990s. Russian financial genius is plotted against by Russian government, US Attorney General and FB I. Frightening.
Listening to this book was superior to earlier reading. (

story is ok. concept chilling if you were to imagine yourself in such a situation.

but it could have been edited by about more than 50 pages. there were times when it got repetitive

all in all a decent read. However i still feel Brian Haig should stick to Drummond (

Readable and interesting. Not as interesting as some of his other works. (

I really enjoyed The Hunted, although I think it went on too long. It was a travesty what both the Russians and Americans did to Alex Konevich and his family. Although I'm a huge fan of Haig's recurring character Sean Drummond, I was happy to see that a book that doesn't feature Sean was just as good. (
