The Iron Curtain has fallen but the shadow remains...
When Pasha Ivanov, a self-made billionaire, leaps to his death from the splendour of his Moscow apartment, the police are baffled. Though no signs point towards homicide, something doesn't add up. Why is Ivanov's bedroom cupboard full of salt? And why was he clutching a salt-shaker when he jumped?
No one wants to investigate madness and the Moscow police are hesitant to dig too deep. But Investigator Arkady Renko refuses to let it go and the troubling case soon leads him to Chemobyl and the Zone of Exclusion. Still aglow with radioactivity, this ghostly netherworld is a place full of deadly legacies and ruined hopes where even the air Renko breathes is a threat...

Work Description
In Wolves Eat Dogs, Renko returns for his most enigmatic and baffling case: the death of one of Russia's new billionaires, which leads him to Chernobyl and the Zone of Exclusion -- closed to the world since 1986's nuclear disaster. It is still aglow with radioactivity, now inhabited only by the militia, shady scavengers, a few reckless scientists, and some elderly peasants who refuse to relocate. Renko's journey to this ghostly netherworld, the crimes he uncovers there, and the secrets they reveal about the New Russia make for an unforgettable adventure.
