An ex-Soviet professor plays amateur detective in this post Cold War romp by New York Times bestselling spy master Robert Littell.
Lemuel Falk, a theoretical "chaoticist," has been denied permission to leave Russia for the last twenty-three years, likely because he knows a few state secrets. Even he is surprised--and wary--when his twenty-fourth request is approved, and he is offered a position as visiting professor at the Institute for Advanced Interdisciplinary Chaos-Related Studies in upstate New York.But as soon as Professor Falk arrives in America, he is plunged into a new kind of chaos--including a high-stakes academic catfight, an affair with a much-younger hairdresser, and cascading offers from domestic spies looking to capitalize on his knowledge--and soon finds himself playing amateur detective at the behest of local police. While he helps hunt for a dangerous serial killer, he grapples with ghosts from his own past in Russia.In this wholly original novel, Littell explores chaos theory, questions of faith, and the ironies of contemporary America.Lisateave
