Great Cuano el cuerpo de un ruso es arrastrado a las turbias aguas de la bahÃa de La Habana, Arkady Renko debe viajar a Cuba para identificar el cadáver. Durante la búsqueda del asesino, Renko descubre una ciudad de soledad descolorida, peligro inesperado y contradicciones desconcertantes. Su investigación le llevará a descubrir a una bella policÃa cubana, asà como los rituales de la santerÃa, a un americano fugitivo y a un grupo de mercenarios despiadados. En un lugar donde desdeñan cuanto huela a ruso, Hemingway se dedicó a la pesca, prosperó el KGB y la música está siempre en el aire, Renko encuentra el rastro de un engaño de envergadura mundial, y la razón para dsfrutar otra vez de su propia vida. I really do like Renko. just 2 books left to read in the series (so far) and this was probably the best. I really felt for him and his missing his dead lover. So much so that he wears a fur coat with her smell still lingering on it, in the heat and humidity of Havana. The book is a mixture of love, loss and new beginnings serving as a layer above the search of an old friends killers. Someone wrote that the ending was predictable I beg to differ, it had me wondering till close to the end. Smith likes strange ways to die. He likes drippy autopsies. He wants exotic. Probably tries to sell movie rights before he finishes chapter one. Nothing wrong with that, but I like my murders the old fashioned way. Straight and simple with a detective who enjoys his meals and a nice walk. Some of you know who I mean. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

When the corpse of a Russian is hauled from the oily waters of Havana Bay, Arkady Renko comes to Cuba to identify the body. Looking for the killer, he discovers a city of faded loneliness, unexpected danger, and bewildering contradictions. His investigation introduces him to a beautiful Cuban policewoman; to the rituals of Santeria; to an American fugitive and a group of ruthless mercenaries. In this place where all things Russian are despised, where Hemingway fished and the KGB flourished, where the hint of music is always in the air, Arkady finds a trail of deceit that reaches halfway around the worldâ??and a reason to relish his own life aga No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
