"Firsthand insights into the paradoxes of glasnost and perestroika aid but add no luster to this mystery of corruption in the Gorbachev-era Soviet Union, written by a former Moscow police investigator. Journalist Sergei Orlovsky travels to Arshalsk to uncover a scandal in the militia and quickly finds himself in mortal danger. With the help of boyhood friend Yuri Kirilov, a Moscow obstetrician, Orlovsky evades his pursuers and returns to Moscow to publish an expose. But the article is squelched, all copies mysteriously confiscated, and both Orlovsky and Kirilov come in for scrutiny from detective Lt. Col. Voshko. When Voshko in turn finds himself under investigation, these three men learn that the scandal reaches far beyond Arshalsk to involve the Mafia, black marketeers, the Nomenklatura, generals and top government officials." -- Publishers Weekly.
