A Gentle Axe 3 Comments / A Gentle Axe, St Petersburg Mysteries / By Roger 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. “Lush, and exceptionally compelling, but take your time – R.N. Morris’s The Gentle Axe has a vast depth of Russian soul; mysterious, compassionate, and utterly irresistible.” Alan Furst. “A satisfyingly grisly yarn… CSI: St. Petersburg.” The New York Times Book Review “Vivid and convincing… keeps the reader guessing until the end.” The Independent CLICK HERE TO BUY ON AMAZON.
