About this listen
AN ARKADY RENKO NOVEL: #2
'One of those writers that anyone who is serious about their craft views with respect bordering on awe' Val McDermid
'Makes tension rise through the page like a shark's fin’ Independent
***
Arkady Renko, former Chief Investigator of the Moscow Town Prosecutor's Office, made too many enemies and lost the favour of his party. After a self-imposed exile in Siberia, Renko toils on the 'slime line' of a factory ship in the Bering Sea. But when an adventurous Georgian woman comes up with the day's catch, the signs of murder are undeniable. Up against the Soviet bureaucracy in a complex international web, Renko must again become the obsessed, dedicated cop he once was. And in doing so, he discovers much more than he bargained for . . .

Evocative and immersive
Loved it but think it could be better to read than listen to despite the narration being above average. I felt a little under pressure to take all the descriptive style in over the audio!!

Well told story
The narrator did a great job narrating.
I really found it hard focusing on the story, as the plot didn’t really grip me.
