Rostnikov Series

Inspector Rostnikov is a series of crime fiction/mystery novels by American novelist Stuart Kaminsky. Inspector Porfiry Petrovich Rostnikov is a police investigator who plies his trade in Moscow, Russia. Kaminsky began his Inspector Rostnikov series in 1981 with Rostnikov’s Corpse (also known as Death of a Dissident). The series lasted 16 novels, concluding with 2010’s A Whisper to the Living. Rostnikov, while a first-rate detective investigator, must also negotiate the politics of policing in Moscow; worries about the suspicions of his Jewish wife by superiors in Moscow and his beloved Ed McBain’s black market copies; and dreams of being a top-class weight lifter. Inspector Rostnikov is a series of crime fiction/mystery novels by American novelist Stuart Kaminsky.

“Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window.”

William Faulkner

“I cannot remember the books I've read any more than the meals I have eaten; even so, they have made me.”

“When the Day of Judgment dawns and people, great and small, come marching in to receive their heavenly rewards, the Almighty will gaze upon the mere bookworms and say to Peter, “Look, these need no reward. We have nothing to give them. They have loved reading.”
