Chernobyl: the Zone of Exclusion. A ghostly place, deserted and forgotten for almost two decades, now inhabited by militia, shady scavengers, a few reckless scientists and some elderly Ukrainian peasants. This is the eerie and dangerous world Inspector Arkady Renko must navigate if he is to find out the truth behind the death of Russia¡s richest oligarchs ... Pasha Ivanov has been found dead on the pavement outside his luxury high-rise apartment in Moscow. It seems like a straightforward suicide, but Renko, never one to take evidence at face value, is puzzled by the mountain of salt found in Ivanov's wardrobe. Refusing to drop the case, he acquaints himself with this wealthy businessman's powerful and corrupt circle. His investigations lead him to Chernobyl¡s notorious Zone of Exclusion, where the body of Lev Timofeyev, Ivanov's former research partner, has been discovered in a contaminated cemetery.

In [the novel, he] enters the privileged world of Russia's new billionaire class. The grandest of them all, a self-made powerhouse named Pasha Ivanov, has apparently leapt to his death from the palatial splendor of his ultra-modern Moscow condominium. While there are no signs pointing to homicide, there is one troubling and puzzling bit of evidence ... in Ivanov's bedroom closet, there's a mountain of salt. Ivanov's demise ultimately leads Renko on a journey through Chernobyl's netherworld. The crimes he uncovers and the secrets they reveal about the New Russia, make for a tense, unforgettable adventure. -Dust jacket."
