The book contains two action-packed novels with different characters, different settings, and a unique detective intrigue, but united by the profound and sophisticated way the past permeates the present and even the future.
The first, "Spanish Night," tells the story of how, in the mid-20th century, the tiny European state of Andorra was briefly ruled by a Russian émigré—and how this historical fact strangely intersected with the lives of our contemporaries. Corruption, international adventurism, and the secrets of foreign intelligence—all of this is woven into a tight knot, at the center of which lies ordinary investigator Mikhail Ivanov. Just yesterday, he was calmly investigating economic crimes in St. Petersburg; today, he must find the kidnapped bride of a Spanish bullfighter alone in a foreign country and evade mafia pursuit. What do the mysterious ruler of Andorra and investigator Ivanov have in common? They share the same enemy...
In the second, "The Door in the Mirror," young investigator Anton Korsakov is afraid to admit he saw a woman's ghost in an antique mirror at the crime scene. But it turns out he's not the only one who has seen this mysterious stranger, and those who have seen her die. Korsakov has no idea that the sinister woman, the old mirror, and the mysterious deaths are closely connected to the history of his own family. And there's nothing mystical about it...
