Moskva




Seven meets Deutschland 83 in this outstanding serial killer thriller for fans of Gorky Park or Child 44

Christmas Eve 1985. The shaved, blood drained body of a young man is found in Red Square; frozen solid - like marble to the touch - missing the little finger from his right hand.

A week later, Alex Marston, the fifteen-year-old daughter of the British Ambassador disappears. Army Intelligence Officer, Tom Fox, posted to Moscow following the death of his own daughter, is asked to help find her.

But as Fox's investigation drags him deeper towards the dark heart of Soviet establishment, his fears for Alex's safety grow as it looks like she could become a sadistic killer's next victim.

Praise for Moskva

Even better than Child 44

Telegraph

Like the city herself, Jack Grimwood's Moskva is richly layered, stylish, beautifully constructed, and full of passion beneath the chills. Part political thriller, part historical novel, part a story of personal redemptions, Moskva cements Jack Grimwood as a powerful new voice in thriller writing. Not to be missed.

Sarah Pinborough

Memorable characters, powerful recreations of history and an unrelenting pace that will keep you breathless. A striking début in the genre.

Maxim Jakubowski

A sublime writer . . . I felt glimmers of Le Carré shining through the prose.
