Turkestan

A new stylish series by the fashionable author of retro detective stories Nikolai Svechin, the most popular after Akunin in the genre! The novel is part of a cycle of works about the detective Alexei Lykov and is the 21st... in the series, but the book can also be read as a standalone work.

June 1894. Having left his position in the Department of Police, Alexei Lykov, along with his friend Titus, travels to Turkestan to sell timber for railway construction. Tashkent — a city on the Great Silk Road — greets travelers with beautiful mosques, bright carpets, and bustling streets. It seems that nothing can disturb the usual and measured life of the townspeople. But Tashkent is shaken by a series of bloody and brutal murders. The strangest thing is that all the victims are Russian settlers. Who is behind this? The newly minted timber merchants decide to help the native police chief, Colonel Skobeev, investigate this tangled case, which, as it turns out, involves not only Muslim fanatics…
