Whilst I generally enjoyed this book, it did not grip me or carry me through in the same way Gorky Park did.
In this story set in the final years of the Soviet Union, Martin Cruz Smith brought back Arkady Renko, the hero of Gorky Park. Arkady is no longer a top investigator. Having angered powerful people he has fallen about as far as possible and now works on the slime line of a Soviet factory ship. But when a young woman turns up dead, what is an investigator to do? Like a blood hound on the sent, he cannot help but unravel the mystery.
Good crime fiction in a very odd setting. Solid 4 stars.
