Kurzbeschreibung
"Sharply, evocatively written and elaborately plotted...It should find as many friends as did GORKY PARK."
THE WASHINGTON POST BOOK WORLD
Back from exile, Arkady Reko returns to find that his country, his Moscow, even his job, are nearly dead. Not so his enemies. Hounded by the Russian mafia, chased by ruthless minions of the newly rich and powerful, and tempted by his great love, Arkady can only hope for escape. Fate, however, has other ideas....

Very special and deep,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Red Square (Taschenbuch)
To say I seldom read thrillers is an understatement (I might have read as many as ten in my entire life, otherwise dominated by books). However, this book was a treat, written with intellligence and an exceptional depth of insight in both human nature and political background. Renko is one of the most authentic literary figures I have come across, and he even influenced me in my way of thinking while I still was a refugee in Germany. That particular setting was probably the reason why I like this book a lot more than Polar Star (I was really surprised that several reviewers claimed it to be the best one in the trilogy), and even more than Gorky Park.

Dark, intricate, and engrossing,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Red Square (Taschenbuch)
Red Square is a dark intricate detective story set in Moscow, Munich, and Berlin. I heard (rather than read) an unabridged audio version, which is not the ideal medium for a Martin Cruz Smith novel. As in every other MCS novel I've read/heard (Gorky Park, Polar Star, Rose), the first time through, I was totally lost at times. On the second reading/hearing, I got a vague idea of the plot. The only MCS novel I've read/heard 3 times is Rose, and I finally get the plot. I'm not overly stupid, but I do have trouble remembering peoples names, particularly Russian names. For those who suffer from the same dyslexia as I, keeping notes while reading is necessary. Perhaps inevitable and unavoidable in such a novel, there are dozens of charactersmost of which are minor. The problem is that minor characters on page 20 pop up again on page 300 and turn out to be major characters. With these caveats, I nevertheless very much enjoy MCS novelsso much so that I frequently give hardback copies as Christmas gifts.

Smith completes the circle with Arkadi Reko!,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Red Square (Taschenbuch)
This final sequel to Gorky Park is dark and gripping. The fallen detective, Arkadi Reko, finally returns to Moscow in triumph. At last he regains his honor. But for what? For the new Russia? Red Square is a thriller to be ranked with the best. Each of these novels leaves you wanting more. Smith is a writer of the highest magnitude.
