Well, 'Gorky Park' is definitely up there. It gives you a real sense of the cold and complex world of Russia during that time. It's not just about the crime, but also about the political and social undercurrents. Then there's 'The Brothers Karamazov' by Fyodor Dostoevsky. Although it's a very complex novel with many themes, it has elements of crime and moral thriller as it delves into the actions and motives of the characters. And 'The Quiet Don' by Mikhail Sholokhov can also be considered as it has some elements of crime and the exploration of human nature in a difficult setting.

One of the best is 'Gorky Park' by Martin Cruz Smith. It's set in the Soviet Union and follows the investigation of murders in Gorky Park. The detailed descriptions of the Russian setting and the complex web of mystery make it a classic. Another great one is 'The Master and Margarita' by Mikhail Bulgakov, which has elements of crime and thriller within its surreal and satirical story. Also, 'Child 44' by Tom Rob Smith is set in Stalinist Russia and shows the hunt for a serial killer in a repressive society.
