this is Tom Rob Smith's first novel and it was a sure hit in the bookstores. his style of writing is really fresh and fast-paced.
the story revolves around the serial killing of children in russia during stalin era. here the protagonist, Leo, finds out the killing is related to each other and started to chase the killer even after being demoted from his high-ranking post in the government. deceptions, truths and lies, breath-taking chase, merciless killings and tortures filled the book. you can't put the book down until the last page i assure you. i really enjoyed reading this book and i could say this one is worthy of your money.
this book will be made into movie soon and will be directed by Ridley Scott (Gladiator, Black Hawk Down) to be shown in 2010.
