After Yekaterina

A dead girl. A disgraced detective. A mystery shrouded in snow and secrets. What if Catherine the Great never fulfilled her destiny and the Ottoman Empire destroyed Holy Mother Russia? In an alternate modern Russia surrounded by the still-powerful Ottoman Empire and the Chinese Empire of the Sun, a dead girl in a pink sweater draws disillusioned Detektiv Alexander Kazakov into an investigation that even the girl's mother wants him to abandon. Driven by the truth and a slowly rising body count, Kazakov must traverse a landscape of snow and brothels, and a civilization frozen by history to catch a killer no one suspects. After Yekaterina is the first in the suspenseful Detective Kazakov Mystery series set in the fictional Central Asian Country of Fergana.
