On the eve of the USSR's 70th Anniversary of the 1917 Communist Revolution, Captain Viktor Voloshin of the Moscow Militsiya speeds to the scene of a grisly murder. A man's mutilated naked body hangs from a tree, a cross carved into his back. But there's something different about this crime. The victim is a black African student. With Gorbachev's policies of Glasnost and Perestroika giving society new freedoms, right wing extremists are emerging from the shadows. Voloshin fears the murder can only be a race-hate crime. On the eve of the Revolution Day parade, security is tight and the city is on high alert. Anonymous bomb threats linked to the lynching escalate fears Moscow is about to explode. But is this all a distraction? The authorities issue a directive. Cover up the murder and protect the reputation of the Communist regime. But Voloshin, no friend of the system, ignores the order. With the KGB and government ministries obstructing his search for justice, the Captain must also conquer his own frailties that threaten to cripple the investigation. Set in the final years of the Soviet empire, this explosive thriller is perfect for fans of Martin Cruz Smith, John Le Carre and Robert Ludlum Inspired by real events.

Action. Comedy. Romance. And that one weird guy. When homicide detective Dexter J. Daley's testimony helps send his partner away for murder, the consequences - and the media frenzy - aren't far behind. He soon finds himself sans boyfriend, sans friends, and, after an unpleasant encounter in a parking garage after the trial, he's lucky he doesn't find himself sans teeth. Dex fears he'll get transferred from the Human Police Force's Sixth Precinct, or worse, get dismissed. Instead, his adoptive father - a sergeant at the Therian-Human Intelligence Recon Defense Squadron otherwise known as the THIRDS - pulls a few strings, and Dex gets recruited as a Defense Agent. Dex is determined to get his life back on track and eager to get started in his new job. But his first meeting with Team Leader Sloane Brodie, who also happens to be his new jaguar Therian partner, turns disastrous. When the team is called to investigate the murders of three HumaniTherian activists, it soon becomes clear to Dex that getting his partner and the rest of the tightknit team to accept him will be a lot harder than catching the killer - and every bit as dangerous.
