G.D. Abson talks about his debut crime novel, Motherland.

Set in St Petersburg, the murky heart of Putin’s Russia, the daughter of a Swedish millionaire has vanished. Captain Natalya Ivanova soon finds herself out of her depth as the case grows in danger and complexity.

“This intelligent page-turner oozes with atmosphere and is perfect a read for anyone who enjoys books by Jo Nesbo, Tom Rob Smith or David Young.”
