Difficult to put down. Suspenseful.
From book back: He has made too many enemies. He has lost his party membership. Once Moscow's top criminal investigator, he now toils in obscurity on a Russian factory ship working with American trawlers in the middle of the Bering Sea. But when an adventurous female crew member is picked up dead with the day's ctch, Arkady Renko is ordered by his captain to investigate an 'accident' that has all the marks of murder.
Up against the celebrated Soviet bureaucracy once more, Renko must again become the obsessed, dedicated cop he was in Gorky Park and solve a chilling mystery with international complications, in this vivid, heart-pounding thriller that never lets up.
