The protagonist is a former geologist who is now the mayor of a Siberian city. When he is called upon to investigate the death of a shady \"bizness man,\" he must use all the resources he can muster, including his expertise in the exotic geology of the remote Siberian landscape. Played out on a broad and unfamiliar territory, the novel moves back and forth from a small Siberian city to the great Tungunska oil fields and to the Taiga forest where the endangered Siberian tiger is slowly disappearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs the novel opens, a shady Russian businessman has been killed in the Siberian oil town of Markovo. Gregori Nowek, the mayor of the city, begins an investigation at the behest of a Moscow bigwig, only to learn that a KGB retread, Kaznin, has taken charge of the open-and-shut case--to protect the real killers who work for his \"Nomenklatura\" bosses. They frame a beautiful Russian-American woman, a tiger researcher, for the murders, though Nowek has discovered evidence that points to foreign involvement, leading to the Russo-American venture. Only Nowek, a man who has given up hope in law and in the future, can save her, and by doing so find a way to restore faith and hope again.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Express","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43583173623882,"sku":"6633j","price":9.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/9101\/8826\/files\/6633j.jpg?v=1778474690","url":"https:\/\/www.bookexpress.nz\/products\/siberian-light-by-robin-white","provider":"Book Express","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
