Book Description

Murder, madness and military secrets - the Cold War is over, and things are about to get very hot... Bodies are turning up in Siberia, some mutilated, some half-eaten. Has the spectre of cannibalism reared its ugly head again in Russia, or is a bizarre cult at work? For George Lazin, a colonel in Russia's Federal Security Service sent to investigate the robbing of a Siberian diamond train, the question soon becomes a matter of life and death - not just for him but for Russia itself. An epic, thrilling sweep through past, present and future in which the echoes of the Cold War are to be heard amid the din of modern Russia as it collapses into anarchy.
