Publisher Notes
In Russia in the not-too-distant future, a provincial detective finds himself pitted against a serial killer at the center of a conspiracy of politics and lies.
Media Reviews
"Thrillerish horrors to chill even the most apolitical blood, but its the social soothsaying which packs the biggest punch."
First Line
We have already begun our descent on Moscow Airport. If I look out of the window of Police Flight 120, I see, through a gap in the clouds, the Moskva River snaking south toward the city. Even from this vantage point I can see the destruction. Where the Anarchist forces fought to the last, shelling has destroyed whole districts. Elsewhere, everything seems normal.
