"A grippingly constructed narrative"—Susanne Hillman, Australian Slavonic and East European Studies -- Susanne Hillman * Australian Slavonic and East European Studies *
"Lenoe's own investigation of the murder is the most authoritative, complete, and convincing to date. The author deserves thanks for assembling and translating the documents, and for producing a work which not only provides a masterful interpretation of the murder itself, but also sheds light on the workings of Soviet politics and vicissitudes of Soviet history more generally. While the book is aimed at the specialist, it manages at the same time to be a gripping read."—Sarah Davies, The Russian Review -- Sarah Davies * The Russian Review *
