In 1975, a plan was put in motion by a group of investors that would change the boundaries of the Pawnee Indian reservation. Ten years of very careful planning and collaboration between factions in Florence, Italy; Las Vegas, Nevada; Cheyenne, Wyoming and Fort Collins, Colorado would ultimately give them access to the Pawnee gold - but not mined by the Pawnee Indians. It was a plan so cunning, that organizations in both the United States and Europe weren't going to let anything stand in their way. However, the timings of these events were extremely crucial to its success. The Monarch Ranch was a key ingredient to its success, but when the new owner purchased the ranch two months earlier, they hadn't counted on Rick Benedict, a Professor of European history to be that fly in the ointment. It was a race against time to mine the gold and distribute to certain parties in Europe and the United States, before the Air Force in Cheyenne Wyoming could mount a major investigation, surrounding the seismic disturbances.

In this original and timely assessment of cultural expressions of paranoia in contemporary Russia, Eliot Borenstein samples popular fiction, movies, television shows, public political pronouncements, internet discussions, blogs, and religious tracts to build a sense of the deep historical and cultural roots of konspirologiia that run through Russian life. Plots against Russia reveals through dramatic and exciting storytelling that conspiracy and melodrama are entirely equal-opportunity in modern Russia, manifesting themselves among both pro-Putin elites and his political opposition. As Borenstein shows, this paranoid fantasy until recently characterized only the marginal and the irrelevant. Now, through its embodiment in pop culture, the expressions of a conspiratorial worldview are seen everywhere. Plots against Russia is an important contribution to the fields of Russian literary and cultural studies from one of its preeminent voices.
