Kiev, 1919. Los bolcheviques han tomado el mando de la ciudad y en ella reina el descontrol. En un clima de robos y asesinatos diarios, el joven Samsón Kolechko pierde a su padre y una oreja a manos de los cosacos, y se ve casi por accidente como jefe de la policía soviética. Su primer y peligroso caso, que incluye una oreja cortada, un hueso de plata y un traje de inusual tamaño y exquisita tela inglesa, lo sumergirá en el caos de Kiev y en los brazos de Nadiezhda, una ardiente bolchevique de la que Samsón ya no podrá separarse.
Con aire de clásico, llena de giros, humor e ingenio, la nueva novela del «mejor novelista vivo de Ucrania» (New European) suma a Samsón Kolechko al elenco de los grandes detectives contemporáneos como Quirke o Verhoeven.
