Title : The Village - Dan Smith - Book
Summary :
On the trail of a serial killer in Stalin's Russia.
Winter 1930. Vyriv, a small, isolated village in western Ukraine. In the snowy steppe, Luka, a Crimean War veteran, rescues an unconscious man. In his sled, two horribly mutilated children's bodies. When Luka returns to the village, the inhabitants panic. With Stalin's rise to power, paranoia reigns. In this small, hitherto unspoiled community, everyone fears the arrival of the Red Army and the militants. Doesn't the arrival of this stranger herald an even greater peril? Has Luka brought a monster into the village, a child murderer, the embodiment of evil? When a young girl from the village disappears, Luka solemnly promises to find her. Across the frozen expanses of this hostile region torn apart by war and brutality, where survival is a constant concern, he sets out in pursuit of a particularly devious predator.
