Over the years, the story of the four Romanov sisters and their tragic end in a basement at Ekaterinburg in 1918...

7) In the enemy's house: the secret saga of the FBI agent and the code breaker who caught the Russian spies

"All the Kremlin's Men is a gripping narrative of an accidental king and a court out of control. Based on an unprecedented series of interviews with Vladimir Putin's inner circle, this book presents a radically different view of power and politics in Russia. The image of Putin as a strongman is dissolved. In its place is a weary figurehead buffeted--if not controlled--by the men who at once advise and deceive him. The regional governors and bureaucratic...
