Omtale fra forlaget
'Rich, authentic and entertaining' New Statesman
Discover the darkly funny follow-up to cult classic Death and the Penguin
Viktor - last seen in Death and the Penguin fleeing Mafia vengeance on an Antarctica-bound flight booked for Penguin Misha - seizes a heaven-sent opportunity to return to Kiev with a new identity. Clear now as to the enormity of abandoning Misha, then convalescent from a heart-transplant, Viktor determines to make amends. Viktor falls in with a Mafia boss who engages him to help in his election campaign, then introduces him to men who might further his search for Misha, said to be in a private zoo in Chechnya.
What ensues is for Viktor both a quest and an odyssey of atonement, and, for the reader, an experience as rich, topical and illuminating as Death and the Penguin.

"And if you're killed on the way I've got to go through your pockets for it... Not nice. Looks like looting. Give me now. I won't let you down. I'll even tell you which pocekt it's in, in case it's me that gets killed."
