Sasha Eugenev is nothing if not a survivor. At age 19, arrested for "parasitism," he's sentenced to hard labor in a remote Russian prison camp, where one of his fellow prisoners promises to share a hidden cache of art worth millions--if he and Sasha survive the rigors of prison. Finally released, Sasha immigrates to New York, where he eventually meets up with his prison-camp compatriot. But before the two can put their hands on the art, Sasha's friend is shot to death; on the run, Sasha learns that the Russian mafia is after the art, too--specifically, an enameled box that Sasha's friend gave him just before he died. Rosenbaum offers up a heady dose of suspense, intrigue, danger, and romance combined with a fascinating (if rather bleak) look at the "new" Russia. Readers with a fondness for such fare will find themselves riveted. A good choice for the spy-thriller crowd. Emily Melton
