Opis

Deep in the Russian countryside, a thirty-ton killing machine known officially as T-34 is being developed in total secrecy. Its inventor is a rogue genius whose macabre death is considered an accident only by the innocent. Suspecting assassins everywhere, Stalin brings in his best if least obedient detective to solve a murder that s tantamount to treason. Answerable to no one, Inspector Pekkala has the dictator s permission to go anywhere and interrogate anyone. But the closer Pekkala gets to answers, the more questions he uncovers first and foremost, why is the state s most dreaded female operative, Commissar Major Lysenkova, investigating the case when she s only assigned to internal affairs?
In the shadows of one of history s most notorious regimes, Pekkala is on a collision course with not only the Soviet secret police but the USSR s deadliest military secrets. For what he s about to unearth could put Stalin and his Communist state under for good and bury Pekkala with them."
