In *Boundless: The Rise, Fall, and Escape of Carlos Ghosn*, acclaimed Wall Street Journal reporters Nick Kostov and Sean McLain meticulously piece together the intricate tapestry of Ghosn's life, ambition, and alleged crimes. This isn't just a business biography; it's a high-stakes thriller that spans continents, exposing the inner workings of multinational corporations, the corrosive influence of unchecked power, and the lengths to which one man would go to secure his legacy. Now a compelling Apple TV+ limited series, *Boundless* takes you behind the headlines and into the mind of a man who redefined the automotive industry. Ghosn, a Brazilian-born, Lebanese-raised, and French-educated executive, was initially hailed as a visionary, a "cost killer" who rescued Nissan from near bankruptcy and forged an unprecedented global alliance. He was a symbol of globalization's promise, a leader who seemed to defy cultural boundaries and business norms. Kostov and McLain expertly trace Ghosn's journey, from his early days at Michelin to his ascent to the top ranks of Renault and Nissan. They reveal the secrets of his success: his relentless work ethic, his sharp financial acumen, and his ability to inspire (and sometimes intimidate) those around him. But as Ghosn's power grew, so did his hubris. He became increasingly convinced of his own indispensability, fueling resentment among his colleagues and raising questions about his compensation and loyalty. The authors meticulously detail the events leading to Ghosn's shocking arrest in Tokyo in November 2018. Accused of financial misconduct, including underreporting his income and misusing company assets, Ghosn vehemently denied all charges, claiming he was the victim of a corporate coup orchestrated by Nissan executives who feared a full merger with Renault. *Boundless* presents a balanced account, exploring the evidence against Ghosn while also examining the motivations and actions of his accusers. But the story doesn't end with Ghosn's arrest. Facing a lengthy trial and the prospect of years in a Japanese prison, Ghosn orchestrated a daring and audacious escape, fleeing Japan in a musical instrument case and ultimately finding refuge in Lebanon, a country with which he had deep ties and which has no extradition treaty with Japan. Kostov and McLain provide a gripping, blow-by-blow account of this incredible escape, drawing on exclusive interviews and never-before-seen details. *Boundless* is more than just a biography; it's a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked ambition, the complexities of corporate governance, and the clash of cultures in a globalized world.
