Two frozen bodies are found in Petrovsky Park – a dwarf neatly packed in a suitcase, and a burly peasant hanging from a tree. Investigating Magistrate Porfiry Petrovich begins his investigation in the city’s squalid brothels and drinking dens but is soon led into an altogether more genteel stratum of society – and to a shocking discovery which reveals the darkest reserves of the Russian soul.
“A satisfyingly grisly yarn… CSI: St. Petersburg.”
The New York Times Book Review
“Vivid and convincing… keeps the reader guessing until the end.”
