Summary
The Kyrgyz winter reminds us that the past is never dead, simply waiting to ambush us around the next corner.
When Inspector Akyl Borubaev of Bishkek Murder Squad arrives at the brutal murder scene of a young woman, all evidence hints at a sadistic serial killer on the hunt for more prey.
But when the young woman's father turns out to be a leading government minister, the pressure is on Borubaev to solve the case not only quickly but also quietly, by any means possible. Until more bodies are found...
Still in mourning after his wife's recent death, Borubaev descends into Bishkek's brutal underworld, a place where no one and nothing is as it seems, where everyone is playing for the highest stakes, and where violence is the only solution.

Thrilling from start to finish. Not my usual kind of read and it is quite bloodthirsty in parts but wow.

First rate thriller
Novel idea setting a detective series in Kyrgyzstan for starters. Plainly told by an excellent narrator, Saul Reichlin who has done a fantastic job with Deon Meyers books too. This captures the post Soviet degradation of a society very well, but is not for the faint of heart. Can be a bit predictable in places and certainly the premise is far fetched, but I found it highly entertaining. Don't expect Midsomer in Moscow though. This is tough going at times
