Moscow’s gone to the dogs in the “imaginative” Edgar
Award–winning crime series about a conscientious Russian cop (The
New York Times Book Review). With packs of stray wild canines
roaming Moscow, it was inevitable that enterprising criminals would
find a way to get rich. As dogfighting became big business, the Mafia
got involved, and venues upgraded from alleys and garages to private
arenas with padded seats. Police Inspector Porfiry Rostnikov has
assigned Sasha Tkach and Elena Timofeyeva to go undercover and bust up
a dogfighting ring. But the only ones more vicious than the dogs are
the ones who profit from them. Speaking of fighting in the streets,
an international drug cartel has chosen Moscow as its next port of
call. One man stands in their way—a young Russian mobster whose
brutality is matched only by his madness. In a gang war of this
magnitude, no civilian is safe. It’s up to Rostnikov and the Office
of Special Investigation to prevent a full-scale bloodbath. “As
usual, Kaminsky manages to make the postlapsarian fracas strangely
engrossing. His major characters are vivid and varied . . . Good
storytelling in yet another of a distinguished series.” —Kirkus
