In a country ruled by fear, no one is innocent.
Stalin's Soviet Union is an official paradise, where citizens live free
from crime and fear only one thing: the all-powerful state. Defending
this system is idealistic security officer Leo Demidov, a war hero who
believes in the iron fist of the law. But when a murderer starts to kill
at will and Leo dares to investigate, the State's obedient servant finds
himself demoted and exiled. Now, with only his wife at his side, Leo
must fight to uncover shocking truths about a killer-and a country where
"crime" doesn't exist.
