    About this series

    Roped into helping her émigré stepfather, Nikolai, escape the clutches of a ruthless blackmailer, Jo Epstein must enter a world where criminals enforce a 19th century code of honor, threats arrive inside traditional Matryoshka (nesting) dolls, and fashion models adorn themselves with lewd prison tattoos. And even as she helps Nikolai—who claims to have been framed—to evade the police, Jo can't help wondering if her musically gifted but socially inept stepfather is as innocent as he claims. From Vladimir Central Prison to the brooding Russian forest, Jo Epstein investigates the world of the vory—a criminal sub-culture as brutal as it is romanticized—while racing against the clock to solve crimes committed on two continents.

      Jo Epstein is a performance poet with a flair for detective work. She's good at what she does, which is why they always find her--—the folks with loved ones who are most certainly guilty, but in need of one last chance. Told with a sardonic voice reminiscent of Raymond Chandler, Ask the Dead is a great start to a series featuring a strong female protagonist. Mystery readers who enjoy New York's ambiance as a city of light and darkness will love the details of life--and death--in the Big Apple, but the narrative is accessible to everyone who likes a hard-boiled gumshoe.
