corruption in afghanistan

There is a good book I just read about corruption in Afghanistan. It's called Turbulence.....think the website is www.turbulencethebook.com. The author Nadir Atash witnessed firsthand systematic corruption in the government and it's not as black and white as you would think. It's a mafia network and I'm not convinced it is just Afghans who are behind it. I was shocked after reading this book what can happen to someone if they try to after the bad guys in Afghanistan.
