Russia, 2015: Nationalist forces have finally defeated the Anarchist rebels; it is an uneasy peace. Provincial police inspector Constantin Vadim is plucked from backwater Murmansk to head up a murder investigation in decaying, crime-ridden Moscow. His task: to solve a succession of unspeakable crimes committed by a serial killer who has become a terrifying local legend and cult symbol. His name is graffittied on concrete walls, emblazoned on the jackets of young men, stamped on the tee shirts of reckless girls in cellar discos: The Monstrum.

While conducting the murder investigation and moonlighting as the new Democratic VP's stand-in, Vadim not only moves closer to identifying the killer, but uncovers high-level government intrigue and deception. As The Monstrum's profile comes together, the political scene begins to disintegrate--and Vadim begins to realize that the two are inextricably bound.
