Lie on Thin Legs

Private detective Tatiana Ivanova takes on the disappearance of the son of a wealthy client, but quickly realizes: this case is much more complicated than a usual kidnapping. The trail leads her to snowy Tarasov, where behind the silence of a neat house and the neighbor's politeness lie long-standing grievances, family secrets, blackmail, and a dangerous game of money. The deeper Tatiana delves into the investigation, the clearer it becomes that no one in this story is telling the whole truth, and the kidnapping itself may turn out to be just part of a meticulously staged scheme. To get to the truth, she will have to unravel a tangle of lies, jealousy, and others' fears before it tightens completely.
