Moscow is terrorized by a psychopathic killer who strikes frequently, acting swiftly and efficiently, leaving the helpless police with the bodies of seven strangled men. To the astonishment of Major Anastasia Kamenskaya, who is leading the investigation, the evidence suggests that the crimes are committed by a woman. Meanwhile, a high-ranking Moscow mobster claims that at least one of the murdered men could not have been a victim of the sought-after killer. As the investigation unfolds, Major Kamenskaya discovers that someone very close to her is involved in the series of murders. To complicate matters further, a hired assassin enters the fray. In "Men's Games," like in her other novels, the "Russian Agatha Christie" paints a dark and realistic picture of contemporary Russia, set against a backdrop of vivid and unconventional characters. Above all, she constructs a brilliant criminal intrigue.
