Description:
|
Set in free-wheeling and semi-lawless Kiev in mid-1990's, The Steel Barons is the story of thirty year old American lawyer Jack Parker, who gets stranded in Ukraine, where he is befriended by Sergei, a black marketer. With a loan from Sergei, Jack opens a law office and transforms himself from a naïve American to a steel baron with a personal army of ex-KGB mercenaries. Even Lena, Jack's new girlfriend, worries about his growing involvement in the criminal world. When his partner is murdered, Jack is given a choice: sell his interests to a competing steel company or die. Based on real events. Please visit thesteelbarons.com.
