We are thrilled to welcome journalist Samuel Rachlin and his latest best selling

It has been published in Denmark and has gone into four printings, with 10,000 copies circulating.
Born in Siberia by a Danish mother and a Lithuanian father, Samuel draws on his many years of hands-on experience as a correspondent in Russia, where he covered for radio, TV, and print media.
