The Death of a Torpedo

Some secrets are worth killing for and some people are worth killing.

In the shadowed streets of 1990s Moscow, cynical private investigator Volodiya Chaika thought he knew the game—until a simple murder case pulled him into the citys brutal post-Soviet underworld. Hired by the mysterious Valeriya Volkova, he uncovers a dark secret: her father was a notorious contract killer, and his death is just the tip of a deadly conspiracy masterminded by a ruthless oligarch desperate to erase his past.

But peeling back the layers drags Chaika into a viper's nest—a ruthless oligarch's plot to torch his bloody past, guarded by feral gangsters and a phantom assassin who strikes from the snow.

Loyalty's a myth, bullets are currency, and every shadow hides a loaded gun.

In this post-Soviet hell, Chaika's playing for survival... or a shallow grave.
