The Wizard of the Kremlin
“Power was the plan. Putin was the consequence.”
Drama
In the chaos of post-Soviet Russia, rising KGB officer Vladimir Putin joins forces with master manipulator Vadim Baranov to reshape life behind the Iron Curtain, using violence and deception to change the world forever.
VIBE
This is a chillingly plausible, slow-burn descent into the machinations of power. It feels like a historical thriller, exposing the morally gray compromises made in the pursuit of influence and control.
