Nostalgia for a time now consigned to history. The author describes the atmosphere of the era and the inner state of the characters so realistically that you believe him immediately and unconditionally.
Moscow in the early 1930s. A prominent party official is murdered in his apartment. The investigation is entrusted to Viktor Pavlovich Strelnikov, a detective with pre-revolutionary experience, and his assistant, young policeman Dmitry Belkin. The motive for the crime is unclear: the victim had no history of conflict, and there were no valuables in the house. The investigators are surprised by a strange cartridge case found at the scene. Such ammunition and a matching pistol are not listed in the OGPU files. Soon, another murder occurs. This time, a drunkard, a resident of the wild Khitrovka neighborhood, is shot. And again, with the same unknown pistol... What do these different victims have in common? The experienced Strelnikov understands: the criminal is no ordinary villain; he likely had a compelling reason to deal with both the official and the degenerate drunkard...
A unique opportunity to temporarily return to the recent past and, with a sense of complete reality, experience the most desperate period of their lives with the characters.
