Book Review of Gorky Park (Arkady Renko, Bk 1)

Gorky Park (Arkady Renko, Bk 1)
reviewed on


Set during the height of the Cold War, Gorky Park weaves a compelling mystery story with scenes of life inside the old Soviet Union. Moscow chief investigator Arkady Renko must solve an unusual triple murder while outmaneuvering the many enemies who want to see him fail. The novel has enough plot differences from the movie adaptation to keep you interested. Definitely a worthwhile read.
