Stroika

by Mark Blair

1989 - the world holds its breath. The Soviet Union is on the brink of collapse, its eastern empire in a state of rebellion. Only a street trader, a drug dealer, a discredited young colonel and a woman, haunted by her past, stand between the world and Armageddon. STROIKA is the story of their friendship, love and betrayal, the quest for unparalleled wealth... and a coup which threatens them all.

Stroika is a fast moving, atmospheric tale, charting the destruction of the old Soviet elite and rise of the new. Against the group gather dark and powerful forces determined to roll back perestroika and restore order to the Soviet Empire… even if it means Armageddon.

Book Reviews

Good book descriptive and well written more please.

by David Lawrence

I've just finished reading your book and it was great! I have to say, I can imagine it being turned into a film; in fact it felt a little like a film as I was reading it.

I read a lot of history but don't know much about perestroika. It's made me interested in learning more. In fact, just yesterday morning whilst picking up some framing, I almost bought Gorbachev's memoirs when I saw it in a charity shop.

But I just wanted to congratulate you on a great book, and I hope you get lots of sales.
