Mother Russia

A Novel

De: Robert Littell

Narrado por: Rich Miller

A riveting thriller about crime and punishment in Soviet-era Moscow. Like the Arkady Renko novels of Martin Cruz Smith, Robert Littell's masterful Mother Russia transports listeners back in time and behind the Iron Curtain to experience the extremes of Soviet society.

Robespierre Pravdin is a black marketeer who prowls Moscow's streets and alleys hustling wristwatches. Wishing only to survive in a city suffocated by paranoia and schizophrenia, Robespierre manages to make a tidy profit and stay under the state's radar-until, one day, he meets the woman called "Mother Russia" and becomes ensnared in the Byzantine and profoundly dangerous game of politics.

This is another darkly engrossing must-listen from the best-selling author of The Sisters and The Defection of A. J. Lewinter.
