| TO SOLVE THE BRUTAL DEATH OF A TRIBAL WOMAN, DETEKTIV ALEXANDER KAZAKOV BRAVESTHE UNFORGIVING CENTRAL ASIAN MOUNTAINS IN THIS EXCITING NOVEL OF MYSTERY AND ADVENTURE. Alternate history, modern-day Russia: Fergana is the last stronghold of the Russian people and tiny buffer state between the Ottoman Empire and the Chinese Empire of the Sun, but now forces threaten to undermine the uneasy peace. An outside influencer stirs unrest between Ferganese Russians and people of tribal descent. The murder of a revered Kyrgyz healer in the village of Biysk takes Detective Alexander Kazakov away from the looming presidential election to a Russian ski resort deep in the mountains. It's a chance to reacquaint himself with a part of the country he once loved. But Instead of a welcome, he finds a tribal community overrun with Russian tourists and a groundswell of festering resentment among the mountain people. His investigation becomes entangled in Kyrgyz protests, and the chilling mass disappearances of tribal people. As the death toll mounts, Kazakov and his associates struggle against prejudice and mounting conspiracies. No one wants to deal with a Russian detective from New Moscow, regardless of his tribal connections, and that includes the local police. When political forces arrive to exploit the situation, they wreak havoc on the town. A mounting body count sends Kazakov deep into the hostile mountains, but nothing prepares him for the secrets and betrayals that threaten the very existence of Fergana. If you like Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch, and James Lee Burke's Dave Robicheaux, you'll love the gritty world of Alexander Kazakov. Don't miss out on the stunning third novel in the Detective Kazakov mystery series. Click buy above. |
