ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

For technical information and inspiration, I am especially indebted to Shelley G. Altenstadter, Deputy Director of Financial Crimes Enforcement Network; and also to: Brian M. Bruh, Director of FinCEN, for generously allowing me access to his headquarters and personnel; Timothy J. Kruthaupt, Chief Operations Support Division, for his responsiveness and guidance; and Anna Fotias, Congressional and Public Affairs Officer, who from the start made sure I got to the right people and who kept the information flowing.

I’d also like to thank Beth Knobel of the
Los Angeles Times,
Moscow Bureau; Norman Katkov, friend and fellow wordsmith; and special thanks to my editor at Pocket Books, Doug Grad, for his enthusiasm and support, for making all the incisive comments expected of those paid to wield a critical eye, and for doing so with much appreciated tact, restraint, and good humor.
