China, 1990 to 2026. In a one-party state that once declared organized crime abolished, the country's own courts have convicted officials at every level: judges and jailers who sold a condemned rapist his freedom, a village Party secretary who made methamphetamine, a police chief who shielded gangs, a security tsar and a vice-minister of public security who took bribes. Then the money: a smuggling empire that bribed sixty-four officials, a state banker's apartment of cash, a financier taken from a Hong Kong hotel, the underground banks, a Tianjin fraud's bitcoin seized in London. Then the reckoning. Covers Lai Changxing and the Yuanhua Group, Zhou Yongkang and the Ministry of Public Security, Lai Xiaomin and China Huarong, Xiao Jianhua and Tomorrow Holding, and Qian Zhimin and Lantian Gerui.
