Multiple award-winner Martin Cruz Smith, whose bestselling novels include Stalin’s Ghost, Gorky Park, and Stallion Gate, reads from and discusses his new mystery Tatiana: An Arkady Renko Novel. Arkady Renko, one of the iconic investigators of contemporary fiction, has survived the cultural journey from the Soviet Union to the New Russia, only to find the nation as obsessed with secrecy and brutality as was the old Communist dictatorship. In Tatiana, the melancholy hero- cynical, analytical, and quietly subversive- unravels a mystery as complex and dangerous as modern Russia itself.
