Child 44 by Tom Rob Smith

Available in paperback only as an airport edition, this gripping thriller has everything you could wish for in a holiday read – and more. A real page-turner, its murder mystery plot acts as a device to explore the terrible workings of Stalinism. At its heart is a kind of catch-22 whereby the Soviet state won't acknowledge murder or prostitution, allowing vice and slaughter to continue unchecked. Bleak but compelling, this is just the thing to make a long-haul flight fly by.
