The second novel in William Ryan's lauded, multi-award nominated Captain Korolev series, set in 1930's Stalinist Russia - now with a stunning new cover look |
Synopsis: |
Where some of Stalin's greatest crimes lie buried . . .Shortlisted for the Ireland AM Irish Crime Novel of the Year AwardRussia, 1937. In Moscow, Stalin's purges are reaching their darkest hour. Meanwhile Korolev, a police investigator, must travel to the bleak, battle-scarred Ukraine - scene of some of Stalin's bloodiest crimes - to look into the mysterious death of a young woman. The victim, a beautiful film production assistant, had made both powerful friends and terrible enemies . . .Published in the USA as The Darkening Field. 'The Holy Thief, set in Stalin's Russia, was one of last year's most impressive crime fiction debuts. The Bloody Meadow, William Ryan's follow-up, does not disappoint . . . Ryan has obviously done much research into that sinister period of Russian history and manages to convey its claustrophobic atmosphere brilliantly' Marcel Berlins, The Times 'Every bit as darkly compelling as its predecessor' Daily Express 'An outstanding thriller' Independent Ireland |
