{"product_id":"9781529426533","title":"The stolen heart","description":"\u003cp\u003eSamson Kolechko has been assigned a most perplexing case - though it is mostly perplexing because it's hard to understand why selling the meat of one's own pig constitutes a crime. But apparently it does, and at the insistence of the Chekist secret police officer assigned to 'reinforce' the Lybid police station, Samson does his diligent - if diffident - best. Yet no sooner has he got started than his live-in fiancée Nadezhda is abducted by striking railway workers who object to the census she's carrying out. And when you factor in a mysterious thief in the police station itself, a deadly tram accident that may have been pre-meditated, and the potential reappearance of the culprit in the case of the silver bone, it's no wonder the 'meat case' takes a back seat. But it is in the pursuit of that petty-fogging, seemingly mundane matter that Samson's fate lies - and Nadezhda's too, for the two are inextricably entwined.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Andrei Kurkov","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55329391804794,"sku":"9781529426533","price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0423\/0240\/6809\/files\/9781529426533_4a4c41f4-396c-4535-ae67-b8f826742179.jpg?v=1746023637","url":"https:\/\/winstonebooks.co.uk\/products\/9781529426533","provider":"Winstone's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
