MGB officer Leo is a man who never questions the Party Line. He arrests whomever he is told to arrest.

And then he is told to arrest his own wife. Leo understands how the State works: Trust and check, but check particularly on those we trust. He faces a stark choice: his wife or his life. And still the killings of children continue...

其实挺土气一个故事，也说不上有多恐怖吧，不过用来练练阅读速度还是蛮合适的，也挺抓人的，Amazon特价29也挺合适的……

有点文不对题，第44个孩子太不明显了，就提到一两次，看到后面都忘了书名是什么意思。人物关系和结局都很讽刺

以为是反特，其实是变态。过程曲折、动作连贯、前苏背景、血腥残暴。缺点就是故事太扯🤪

讀的是日本新潮社的文庫上下本。作者不愧是劍橋文學首席畢業，文筆簡單易懂，故事充滿張力和戲劇性，特別是書後大量參考文獻和學者朋友的指正幫助所準確地描寫和構建起了斯大林時代的極權蘇聯，讓人大呼過癮。而李奧也是最苦逼的偵探了，從國家英雄變成人民公敵，歷經千辛萬苦終於偵破羅斯托夫開膛手連環殺人案！

处女作就写出这个水平可以说非常厉害了。某些情节在当前大局势下读来，真是“于我心有戚戚焉”

政治背景和犯罪现场的描写 以及主角们内心的情感纠结和思想变化都描绘得很出色 故事情节很动人 完全不会感到无聊或老套 总之是很喜欢的一本书
