Andrey Dobrov is a well-known Russian journalist, TV and radio host, and publicist, the author of an information-and-analysis program. The audience is offered a cycle of his historical detective stories about the famous “king of reporters,” Vladimir Gilyarovsky—a man of high intellect and fine intuition. He knew how to communicate equally smoothly with law-abiding people and with the criminal element of old Moscow.

“Dinner of the Dead” is the fifth book in the series. The famous horse breeder Stolyarov is poisoned during dinner at the Merchant’s Club. Vladimir Gilyarovsky conducts a report-investigation. The inquiry learns that the murder weapon was a rare medical preparation that can be made only in laboratory conditions. Suspicion falls on the specialist who ate with Stolyarov not long ago. Of course, a few other people are also suspected—including the famous restaurateur Testov. The circle of suspects slowly narrows as the number of victims grows. Who is the criminal? The answer is in the audiobook.
