The darkening field

Summary: It is 1937 and Captain Alexei Korolev of Criminal Investigation Division of the Moscow Militia has been ordered to investigate the suspicious suicide of Maria Alexandrova Lenskaya. His instructions are to determine if her suicide was actually a cover-up for murder and, if so, to find the killer, but under no circumstances is he to mention her supposed illicit affair with the party director. Moral, loyal, and commited to justice, Korolev is trapped between the demands of the party and those of the truth.
