"Racing vertically" (1974) - one of the most famous works of the Weiner brothers. And at the same time - almost unknown: being screened, the novel was partly overshadowed by the film of the same name (1982), which played such popular actors as Andrei Myagkov and Valentin Gaft. The movie retained mainly the external plot: the story of the confrontation between investigator Stas Tikhonov and thief Lekha Dedushkin nicknamed Baton. The struggle of justice with lawlessness, hard work with idleness, good with evil ... Behind this straightforward formula in the book live two far from schematic heroes-antagonists with their doubts, despair, loneliness. Thanks to the dialogic construction of the narrative, the authors give the word equally to both sides. Especially interesting is the image of Baton - intelligent, charming, tormented "parasite and detached". Readers will meet and with the famous hero from "The Meeting Place cannot be changed" - Sharapov, who has now become a lieutenant colonel of the MUR. The edition also includes the story "Staggering at Noon" (1968). It was after its publication to Vainers came to wide recognition. Y. Nagibin called the story "a fresh word in the development of the detective genre".
