Now a major television series starring James Norton (War & Peace, Happy Valley) and created by Oscar-nominated screenwriter and film director Hossein Amini (Drive) and James Watkins (The Woman in Black), co-produced by BBC, AMC, and Cuba Pictures. Other cast members include David Strathairn (The Bourne Ultimatum, Good Night, Good Luck), Faye Marsay (Love Nina, Game of Thrones), Juliet Rylance (The Knick, Frances Ha), Aleksey Serebryakov (The Method, Leviathan), and Maria Shukshina (Yolki 3, Terrorist Ivanona).In this powerful and groundbreaking work, award-winning author and journalist Misha Glenny takes us on a journey through the new world of international organized crime. Tracing the history of the shadow economy over the last twenty years, Glenny exposes the nexus of crime, politics, and money that has come to shape and inform the post-Cold War era. From gun runners in the Ukraine to money launderers in Dubai, cyber criminals in Brazil, racketeers in Japan, and the booming marijuana industry in western Canada, McMafia builds a breathtaking picture of a secret and bloody business that now accounts for 20 percent of the world's GDP. Glenny conducted countless interviews with police, victims, politicians, and members of the global underworld in eastern Europe, North and South America, Africa, the Middle East, China, Japan, and India to uncover the story of organized crime's phenomenal, often shocking growth. This edition features a new chapter reflecting on the expansion of McMafia culture in the past decade and its infiltration of major institutions of the global elite - including the most powerful centres of government - brought to light by revelations such as WikiLeaks and the Panama Papers. Fascinating, highly readable, and impressively well-researched, McMafia exposes the dark side of globalization and the future of organized crime. | McMafia by Misha Glenny, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
