In the novel “Goldfish Tank”, fate seriously decided to test the resilience of the inhabitants of a Canadian city Vancouver, sending down on their heads not only prolonged heavy rains, but also a much more serious, terrible test - a maniac killer, cold-bloodedly shooting men and women, old and young, white and colored, ordinary people and even police officers with a powerful rifle. Who is this man who declared war on an entire city? The novels in the proposed collection are published in Russian for the first time.
