Life is a series of murders, lies, and corruption for hard-boiled Russian detective Arkady Renko. Renko is the brainchild of crime novelist Martin Cruz Smith, and the star of his series of Russia-based books, starting with the bestseller "Gorky Park" in 1981. In the eighth book of the series, "Tatiana," the detective investigates the murder of a Russian journalist.

Guests:

Martin Cruz Smith, author of "Tatiana: An Arkady Renko Novel;" and two-time winner of the Hammett Prize from the International Association of Crime Writers
