The acclaimed author of The Gentle Axe returns with another atmospheric thriller starring investigator Porfiry Petrovich
Hailed with glowing reviews , R. N. Morris’s The Gentle Axe borrowed Porfiry Petrovich of Dostoyevsky’s Crime and Punishment to create a wholly new, hauntingly authentic novel of suspense. A Vengeful Longing, Petrovich’s next outing, is even more engrossing. As the laconic investigator follows a trail that begins innocently with a box of chocolates, he is drawn deep into St. Petersburg’s squalid heart. Aided by Morris’s effortless prose, readers are immersed in the stifling world of nineteenth-century tsarist Russia and treated to an unforgettable rendering of a brutal time and place that will ensnare every fan of sophisticated historical fiction.
