A political thriller set in 1993 in the Soviet Empire in ruins, Italy, and England. A tale of love and adventure that takes us from the brain drain from decaying Russia to uranium trafficking with Arab countries. Russia is opening up to the world and setting up a free press, while Yeltsin announces his intention of selling Siberia to meet the needs of his people. Mat, a former Italian police commissioner turned private detective, accepts a case from the beautiful Tatiana. Her father, the engineer who created Togliattigrad, the town built for FIAT workers, died in a suspicious road accident in the former USSR. Between reality and fantasy, amid CIA and KGB counter-espionage games, stunning girls and situations worthy of 007, we glimpse the bigger economic and social picture of Russia and the consequences of the fall of the Berlin wall. After the global success of his novel Vanity Art in 2000, Wannenes gives us another brilliant illustration of his literary style and detailed historical research.
