Evgeny Prigozhin emerged as one of the most dangerous warlords in the world and as one of Vladimir Putin's chief rivals in Russia's tumultuous political climate, exiled after leading Wagner's attempted coup and killed in a mysterious plane crash. But what is the truth about this enigmatic figure, his role in the war with Ukraine, and the chaos unleashed across Russia by his turn against Putin? And, the aftermath of his death, what is next for Russia in the new stage of late Putinism that Prigozhin's life forged?

Hvordan kan det vaere at Rusland altid ender med en tsar, uanset om de har enevaelde, kommunisme eller demokrati? Hvad enten den staerke mand så hedder Ivan den Grusomme, Josef Stalin eller Vladimir Putin? "Mystikken om Putin" er en aktuel og kontroversiel bog af den russisk/amerikanske journalist Anna Arutunyan, der har arbejdet som politisk korrespondent fra Moskva igennem ti år. Anna Arutunyan viser at det velkendte spørgsmål "Hvem er Putin?" i virkeligheden er et trickspørgsmål: for at forstå Putin må man forstå den russiske mentalitet, der har tilladt Putin at blive, den han er.
