This guy is brilliant- he's unfortunately been confined to the ghetto of "genre fiction" for most of his career, although he's achieved some serious cult status of late. This is his first novel, I think. Either way, it's great. NKVD operatives, lots of gunplay, sex, espionage, food & wine- this book is a cornucopia of WWII spy fiction.
