You could, of course, stress your stand about the recent "diplomatic spat" between Russia and Georgia ( http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/5415388.stm ) and read some Boris Akunin (whose civilian name is Grigory Chkhartishvili) - I guess you would not have my kind of possibility of showing support by drinking some Georgian wine if not feeling like reading more about Fandorin).
I do not know why, but the other suggestions that came to my mind were also crime fiction for some reason: "In a Dry Season" (this one I liked best myself when I read it some time ago) by Peter Robinson, "The Falls" by Ian Rankin or - this one was slow motion, so unless you are in hospital like situation with nothing else to do, I am not sure - "Blackwater" by Kerstin Ekman.
