In post-war Pskov, two similar robberies occur one after the other. In both cases, the criminals steal paintings by the renowned artist Shapiro, who emigrated from the USSR in the 1920s. The investigation is entrusted to Pavel Zverev, head of the operations department. Detectives establish that the victims of both robberies once worked together in the neurology department of the same hospital, and that the future artist Shapiro was their patient. Perhaps someone, knowing about this, decided to build their own collection of valuable paintings... This theory remained viable until Zverev and his operatives tracked down a legendary gang that had been operating in Pskov even before the war...

A unique opportunity to return to one of the most vibrant periods of Soviet history – the post-war period. Real people, real criminal cases, gripping plot twists.

Characters reminiscent of the iconic images from the film "The Meeting Place Cannot Be Changed." The spirit of the times, reverently preserved in many families. An unusual and realistic depiction of the everyday work of the Soviet police.
