About this listen
Following a previous investigation, which implicated those at the very top in Soviet Russia, Captain Alexei Korolev finds himself hailed as an example to all.
But Korolev lives in an uneasy peace - if it is discovered what his real actions were during the case, he will face deportation to Siberia. Instead, Colonel Rodinov of the NKVD security service asks the detective to look into the suspected suicide of a young woman on a film set in the Ukraine. The feared commissar for State Security, Ezhov, wants the matter looked into. And when the detective arrives on the set for The Bloody Meadow, in the bleak, battle-scarred Ukraine, he soon discovers that there is more to her death than meets the eye....

Another really enjoyable listen with Korolev
There is no doubt Sean Barrett is a master narrator. His voice is perfect for this 1930s Russian detective series. Korolev and the whole cast of characters are enjoyable and well rounded. The story is suitable complex and the pace perfect.

An excellent follow on to The Holy Thief
I thoroughly enjoyed this second book by William Ryan for the same reasons as I enjoyed the first book: well-drawn characters, a terrific plot and excellent descriptive writing. An interesting insight also into revolutionary Russian culture and times. Highly recommend the series.
