I loved this little book. It had all the right ingredients to keep me flicking through the pages, Russian girls, middle aged protagonist, sex, a white collar crime, sprinkled by a great dose of the current zeitgeist in Moscow which is captivating to state the least. This book is great read for anyone interested in Moscow life, set in Russia's historical context of war and cold weather, filled with a healthy amount of Russian narrative. My best one, which I found very similar to Pakistani situation is, 'They (Russian) know the rules, they can keep ripping their own people off, so long as they can play nice to the foreigners.'
