Detective Arkady Renko returns to Moscow in the internationally bestselling series about Russian crimes, broken hearts, and the mysteries of the soul.

Investigator Arkady Renko, the pariah of the Moscow prosecutor's office, has been assigned the thankless job of investigating a new phenomenon: late-night subway riders report seeing the ghost of Joseph Stalin on the platform of the Chistye Prudy Metro station. The illusion seems part political hocus-pocus and also part wishful thinking, for among many Russians Stalin is again popular; the bloody dictator can boast a two-to-one approval rating. Decidedly better than that of Renko, whose lover, Eva, has left him for Detective Nikolai Isakov, a charismatic veteran of the civil war in Chechnya, a hero of the far right and, Renko suspects, a killer for hire. The cases entwine, and Renko's quests become a personal inquiry fueled by jealousy.

The investigation leads to the fields of Tver outside of Moscow, where once a million soldiers fought. There, amidst the detritus, Renko must confront the ghost of his own father, a favorite general of Stalin's. In these barren fields, patriots and shady entrepreneurs -- the Red Diggers and Black Diggers -- collect the bones, weapons and personal effects of slain World War II soldiers, and find that even among the dead there are surprises.

Beloved dog toy now in glow in the dark canvas.
Style: Flying Glow Squirrel
This is a great frisbie style product with the advantage of glow in the dark visibility. My German Shepherd has been retrieving the original Chuckits for 5 years. They fly through the air and have the advantage of curved design which allows a dog to slide their mouth under it easily when it is on the ground. Awesome dog toy that my dog never tires of. Heavy duty canvas design for durability and washability when it gets muddy.

Great, tough, and will not break your dog’s teeth!
Style: Giggle Fumble
I am the aunt of several different types of dogs and they all love the giggle toys. The problem with most of them is that they are hard to Plastic (I guess so the dog doesn’t bite into the giggle box and disable it). Every pup I know is crazy about the giggle toys, but I’m always afraid they’ll break teeth. This one is very tough material but not hard so that your dog could bite down on it and enjoy the giggle.

Perfect for strong chewers!
Style: EcoFetch
Best balls for dogs who love to tear up toys. My pup tore up regular tennis balls but he can’t tear these up and he loves to just chew them. Will always buy these for our fur baby!

Beagle’s Best Friend
Style: Super Crunch Stick, Style: Super Crunch Stick
This is my dog’s favorite toy! We’ve had it for about 6 months now. She plays with it and chews on it every single day. She takes it everywhere. Despite all her rough housing with it, it is still completely intact, so it is extremely durable! Love this thing! We call it her “crunchy carrot”
