Among the many things Peter doesn't know, he doesn't know he's an archetype, the Prince of Coins incarnate. He doesn't know his fianc is a fortune teller either. He doesn't know Russian culture, politics, or language, but he does know American business. And he knows his fianc speaks Russian. He thinks she can make him the new Tsar of the timber industry, but first they must survive a weekend with the Russian mob.
Red Russia is the story of an American businessman and his interpreter in Russia, of business, lies, and deception, of fortunes bought and told.
