The apartment’s owners are missing, while a faceless killer known only as Koschey—“the Deathless”—is roaming the city and leaving a trail of death in his wake.<br /><br />Joined by Russian FSB agent Larisa Tchoumitcheva, Reilly’s investigation soon uncovers a deadly, desperate search for a mysterious device whose origins reach back in time to the darkest days of the Cold War and to Imperial Russia. A device that, in the wrong hands, could have a devastating impact on our world.<br /><br />Packed with the twists and suspense, the impeccable historical research, and the present and past story lines that Khoury’s fans have come to expect, <i>Rasputin’s Shadow</i> will keep readers turning pages long into the night.<br /><br /><br /><i>From the Paperback edition.</i>
