„OLD NICK AND THE MUMMY” -a novel by STELIAN TANASE
Translated from the Romanian by Jean Harris
Chapter 1
“I don’t care what happens to Russia. Let the Devil take her!” V.I. Lenin
Lenin disappeared from Red Square on a rainy night in April 1953. The devil opened the sarcophagus and dragged him out by the feet. When the soldier on guard turned on the light, all he saw was the generalissimo’s mummy. Not Lenin’s. The neighborhood drunks say the perp had accomplices. A jailbird might have offered a clue: the phone number of a young widow. The bandits swiped the mummy
