Heads You Win by Jeffrey Archer
In Leningrad in 1968, Alexander Karpenko is, from an early age, clearly destined to lead his countrymen. After his father is assassinated by the KGB for defying the state, he and his mother flee and must choose at the docks between a container ship to America or to Great Britain. A coin toss decides his future. Spanning two continents and thirty years, the story follows his triumphs and defeats as an immigrant who ultimately faces the past he left behind in Russia.
