When a local quarry yields up a garroted body with bad dental work and toes tattooed in Cyrillic, Joe Gunther figures it for a Russian mafia killing, rare as that might be in Vermont. But it's so very... tidy. So very... professional. Then the CIA calls, inviting Gunther down to Washington for some friendly "assistance" with his case. Suddenly he's caught up a shadowy game of cross and double-cross--manipulated by cynical cold warriors who seem not to have gotten the memo--and Gunther soon realizes that he's a pawn that both sides are willing to sacrifice.

My favorite Vera Stanhope mystery so far; could not put it down until I finished it. The end was a total surprise.
