Kyiv, 1919. The Soviets control the city, but White armies menace
them from the West. No man trusts his neighbour and any spark of
resistance may ignite into open rebellion. When Samson Kolechko's
father is murdered, his last act is to save his son from a falling
Cossack sabre. Deprived of his right ear instead of his head,
Samson is left an orphan, with only his father's collection of
abacuses for company. Until, that is, his flat is requisitioned by
two Red Army soldiers, whose secret plans Samson is somehow able to
overhear with uncanny clarity. Eager to thwart them, he stumbles
into a world of murder and intrigue that will either be the making
of him - or finish what the Cossack started. Translated from the
Russian by Boris Dralyuk
