Description
Siberian Red is a gripping thriller set against the backdrop of World War II. When an informant claiming to know the location of Tsar Nicholas II's missing treasure is murdered in Siberia, Stalin demands that Inspector Pekkala investigate. To solve the case, Pekkala must return to Borodok, the notorious Gulag where he was once held captive, and pose as a prisoner to gather information. As he delves deeper into the mystery, Pekkala must confront his troubled past and the pressures of Stalin's regime.
A tense and suspenseful narrative unfolds as Pekkala navigates the treacherous landscape of Soviet Russia, where loyalty is a luxury few can afford. With his unique blend of toughness, intelligence, and honesty, Pekkala must use all his skills to uncover the truth and bring justice to those responsible for the murder.
