Fascinating, funny, and frightening...Masello skilfully weaves
together the story of the death of the Russian royal family with
the possibility of a new worldwide influenza pandemic... Toss in a
pack of slavering wolves, the undead, and a chilling ending, and
the result is a terrific, can't-put-it-down read' * Publishers
Weekly *
A delicious sense of creeping dread permeates the first act,
greatly enhanced by its setting in the stark but beautiful
landscape of northwestern Alaska... Tense, taut and impossible to
put down * Kirkus (starred review) *
