The body of an elite government translator shows up on the sand dunes of Kalingrad: killed for nothing but a cryptic notebook filled with symbols. A frantic hunt begins to locate and decipher this notebook. In a fast-changing and lethal race to uncover what this translator knew, and how he planned to reveal it to the world, Renko makes a startling discovery that propels him deeper into Tatianas past - and, at the same time, paradoxically, into Russias future.Praise for Martin Cruz Smith The story drips with atmosphere and authenticity a literary triumph David Young, bestselling author ofStasi Child One of those writers that anyone who is serious about their craft views with respect bordering on aweVal McDermid ';Cleverly and intelligently told,The Girl from Veniceis a truly riveting tale of love, mystery and rampant danger.
