Prosecutor Rachevsky is the lead prosecutor in the Tulayev case. He pushes for results. Rachevsky looks unhealthy. He has a bulging forehead, gray bulbous chin, and a curving nose that is swollen at the base with dark, hairy nostrils. His skin is sanguine with blotchy areas of violet. He has large chestnut-brown eyes that look like opaque marbles. Rachevsky eventually goes mad under pressure and is relieved of his position as prosecutor and put in charge of tourism.
