Snowdrops by AD Miller. “A gripping, relatively short and ever so edible mystery set in Moscow.‘Snowdrops’ is Moscow slang for a corpse that lies buried through the winter and emerges in the thaw.The main character is Nick Platt, a rather straight normal almost boring English lawyer working for an English law firm in Moscow at the height of the wild Russian oil boom - the wild east. He falls for a young Russian woman and events begin to unfold at a fast pace. I was absolutely gripped.”
