I'm using this book to learn Russian and truly enjoy it. But I kept wondering if it's over. I mean the ending comes so suddenly that it left several questions like who is the woman at the beginning of the story? I guess it's Liz, but what happened to her? I think she's a good woman who deserves better than that. And will this Vadim die? And why this Christina paid so much attention on Vadim's child? It's a hospital where she could pick children like picking goods in a mall. Last but not least, is all this designed by Christina to lure poor Vadim into the trap, or is it just an accident? Anyway, I like this story and hopefully can read more from you.
