Anthony Olcott Poradie kníh
1. január 1950 – 1. január 2018
Anthony Olcott, píšuci pod pseudonymom Toni Brill spolu so svojou manželkou, je autorom, editorom a prekladateľom so širokým záberom. Jeho literárne diela, vrátane nominovaných románov a ocenených štúdií ruskej kriminálnej literatúry, skúmajú zložité vzťahy medzi komunikáciou, dátami a informáciami. Olcottov výskum sa zameriava na výzvy, ktoré masívna explózia médií predstavuje pri premene dát na informácie a informácií na spravodajské poznatky. Jeho hlboký záujem o transformáciu dát na spravodajské informácie je badateľný v celej jeho tvorivej aj odbornej činnosti.

His only ally is Galya, a woman doctor whose sensual charms mask a ferocious heart --and who may or may not be his ultimate betrayer.

His first mistake was to discover the corpse. His second was to tell the KGB. — Duvakin is a security officer with two desperate problems. One is the naked dead American in room 852. The second is Colonel Polkovnikov of the KGB. When the KGB asked Duvakin's help, that should have been his warning. Dead Russians are one thing. Dead Americans quite another. Then, tempted by fortune and lured by power, Duvakin risks betraying his friends, his beloved Tanya, himself, and his country.
