All The World's A Stage by Boris Akunin

THE 11TH BOOK IN THE BESTSELLING ERAST FANDORIN MYSTERIES SERIES EBRD LITERATURE PRIZE FINALIST 'This is Akunin on characteristic form... the pages race by' Guardian Eliza Altairsky-Lointaine is the toast of Moscow society, a beautiful actress in an infamous theatre troupe. Her love life is as colourful as the parts she plays. She is the estranged wife of a descendant of Genghis Khan. And her ex-husband has threatened to kill anyone who courts her. He appears to be making good on his promise. Fandorin is contacted by concerned friend - the widowed wife of Chekhov - who asks him to investigate an alarming incident involving Eliza. But when he watches Eliza on stage for the first time, he falls desperately in love . . . Can he solve the case - and win over Eliza - without attracting the attentions of the murderer he is trying to find?
