Siberian Light

By: Robin White

Narrated by: Stephen Lang

A man lies dead, sprawled in the bedroom of apartment #8. Rock music blares as two militiamen follow the bloody trail upstairs. . . and into the quick, cold slice of a razor-edged blade.

The victim was a criminal. But two honest cops were killed with him. Gregori Nowek, mayor of the small Siberian town, is ordered to investigate. Armed with only a few clues--a fragment of cloth, American bullets, an unidentified bone--Nowek is shocked when a prime suspect is named.

Dr. Anna Vereskaya came to Siberia to study the endangered tiger. Instead, she stumbled on the dangerous edge of a shocking conspiracy. Gregori Nowek wants to believe in her innocence--just as he wants to believe in justice for his lawless town. Searching for answers, Nowek is plunged into a terrifying race across the stark Siberian wilderness. Here, betrayal is everywhere. And here, a man, a woman, and a desperate, haunted land are joined together--as a staggering truth is uncovered on the world's last frontier.©1997 Robin A.

BEST BOOK LIKE THIS SINCE GORKY PARK

This book is much better than most thrillers and is a classic of its kind. Do yourself a favor and listen to it, then read it.

Darn good reader for a good story

Great russian accent and all. The writer did not make me feel cold because of snow but what a chilling plot.
