Description
âKaminsky gets Russia right, and Cuba right, but best of all he gets his superb cop Rostnikov altogether right yet another time. Bravo!â âEd McBain
The Soviet Union is dead, and Russian society has been fractured into a thousand pieces. Through those cracks seeps the first serial killer in the countryâs history, whose exploits send Moscow into a frenzy. As his colleagues hunt for the pipe-wielding maniac whoâs killed forty women so far, police inspector Porfiry Rostnikov must depart for Havana to avoid an international incident.
First, Rostnikov must confront his fear of flyingâor more specifically, flying on Russian airplanes. Assuming he lands safely in Havana, this case will require the utmost diplomacy. A Russian politician is accused of murdering a young Cuban woman. Rostnikovâs superiors want things wrapped up cleanly and quickly. Unfortunately, their man in Havana is about to discover there is nothing simple about this murder.
âIn a style reminiscent of Martin Cruz Smith in Gorky Park, Kaminsky effectively transplants the police procedural to the fertile ground of âdemocraticâ Russia, where it blossoms anew . . . An excellent novel.â âBooklist
