Acerca de esta escucha

A true story of law, betrayal, and survival in Ukraine’s Wild East.

The Steel Barons follows the harrowing descent of Jack Parker, a thirty-year-old American lawyer sent to Kyiv in the early 1990s to negotiate a multimillion-dollar telecom deal. It should have been a fast track to equity partnership in one of Manhattan’s most prestigious law firms. Instead, one reckless night lands him in a Soviet-era venereal disease clinic — and from there, everything begins to unravel.

Abandoned by his firm, hunted by mob-connected investors, and betrayed by his own government, Jack finds himself stranded in a country where bribes are justice, bullets settle disputes, and survival depends on who you know — and what you’re willing to do. Thrown into the orbit of Sergei, a streetwise fixer with ex-KGB ties, and Lena, a mysterious beauty caught between loyalty and danger, Jack begins navigating a world far removed from any courtroom.

As the Soviet Union collapses and a ruthless new order rises, Kyiv becomes a battleground of steel, sex, and blood money. Behind closed doors, oligarchs are minted overnight. Government officials are for sale. And everyone — from foreign investors to local thugs — is scrambling to carve out their empire in the lawless void.

What begins as a legal assignment transforms into a fight for survival — and ultimately, for Jack, a question of who he really is when the systems he trusted fail him completely.

Told with dark humor, journalistic clarity, and razor-sharp pacing, The Steel Barons is not just a thriller — it's a portrait of the brutal cost of ambition, the fragility of law, and the moral collapse of a post-communist world.

Based on true events. Riveting, raw, and unforgettable.

For readers who crave high-stakes international intrigue, morally complex characters, and the shocking truths behind global corruption.
