Raskolnikov, a destitute and desperate former student, wanders alone through the slums of St. Petersburg, deliriously imagining himself above society’s laws. But when he commits a random murder, only suffering ensues. Embarking on a dangerous game of cat and mouse with a suspicious police investigator, Raskolnikov finds the noose of his own guilt tightening around his neck. Only Sonya, a downtrodden prostitute, can offer the chance of redemption.","brand":"Penguin Putnam Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49399862624599,"sku":"9780143107637","price":18.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780143107637.jpg?v=1730468952","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/crime-and-punishment-9780143107637","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
