Rodeo for Beautiful Ladies

Three friends, three inconsolable widows mourn their husbands: one was given sleeping pills at the wrong time and crashed in a car accident, the second was given vinegar essence instead of narzan, and the third was simply shot in his own car. Press-center employee of the Interior Ministry Katya Petrova and investigator Marianna Kiseleva have no doubt — the murders were committed by the same person. And this person has nothing to lose, he cold-bloodedly eliminates those who could lead to his trail. Katya and Marianna embark on a risky game, as a result of which the killer is captured. Now the detectives must decide whether they can hand him over to justice…

The novels of hereditary investigator Tatyana Stepanova allow the reader to experience a literary 'room of fear.' Mysterious murders, an almost tangible atmosphere of crime, the agonizing and disturbing anticipation of something unknown and frightening... All this Tatyana Stepanova manages to reproduce brilliantly. Random encounters, everyday affairs, insignificant details are depicted in her detective stories in a special, dramatic light, as if an innocuous spring meadow before a rapidly approaching storm.
