''Gorky Park'' is a 1981 crime novel written by Martin Cruz Smith set in the Soviet Union.〔O'Brien, Timothy L. ''The New York Times'' (August 6, 2007). (Martin Cruz Smith's Arkady Renko series: A trail of clues to the Russian soul )〕〔Wroe, Nicholas, ''The Guardian'' (March 26, 2005). (Crime Pays )〕
Gorky Park is the first book in a series which also includes ''Polar Star'' and ''Red Square'' which are set during the Soviet era. Five more books with the character Arkady Renko, which all take place after the fall of the Soviet Union, have been published. These are ''Havana Bay'', set in communist Cuba; ''Wolves Eat Dogs'', which follows Renko in the disaster of Chernobyl; ''Stalin's Ghost'' in which Arkady returns to a Russia led by Vladimir Putin, ''Three Stations'' and ''Tatiana''.〔See, Carolyn, ''Washington Post'' (September 3, 2010).

==Plot==
The story follows Arkady Renko, a chief investigator for the Militsiya, who is assigned to a case involving three corpses found in Gorky Park, an amusement park in Moscow, who have had their faces and fingertips cut off by the murderer to prevent identification.
Despite being born into the nomenklatura himself, Renko exposes corruption and dishonesty on the part of influential and well-protected members of the elite, regardless of the consequences. A short episode of the book takes place in the United States, but when exposed to western capitalist society, he finds it to be equally corrupt and returns to the Soviet Union (while he may have found corruption in the West, in ''Red Square'', it is stated that he returned to the Soviet Union in order to protect his love interest, Irina, from also being forced to return).
