USSR Crime Chronicle: The Most Notable Criminal Cases from 1917–1991
14.99 €
Drawing on a wealth of factual material, the author has created a crime chronicle of the USSR, covering both well-known criminal cases and those that received little public attention: the robbery of the Patriarch's Sacristy and the Museum of Fine Arts, the murder of a Supreme Soviet deputy and the Mausoleum explosion, the robbery of a Yerevan bank, and the murder of a popular film actor.

Of particular interest are the pages detailing the development of the Moscow Criminal Investigation (MUR) and the formation of the thieves-in-law caste. Among the book's antiheroes are the notorious robbers Yakov Koshelkov and Lenka Panteleyev, the false Colonel Pavlenko and the bandit Mitin, the currency dealer Rokotov and the maniac Ionesyan, the counterfeiter Baranov, and the Tolstopiatov brothers.

The book was previously published under the title "Bandits of the Socialist Era."
