Even death can be falsified...
A dead girl is found in a closet, claiming that the apartment's deceased owner practiced witchcraft and therefore cannot truly die until she passes on her power. A story about witches, devils, the dead, and New Year's holidays spent with family.
On New Year's Eve 1998, three brothers—a cop, a gangster, and a soldier—meet not at the festive table, but in a much darker setting: in the kitchen next to their mother's coffin. It is with this scene that "Puppies" begins, a terrifying family saga. In a Moscow apartment, where every object holds memories of the past—from the smell of cheap booze to long-ago quarrels—the brothers must spend the night vigil. Their conversations and memories are grim: violence, indifference, and alcohol dominate. But the domestic drama soon takes on a different dimension: the brothers find a dead girl in the closet. A terrifying discovery will lead to an even more terrifying revelation: the girl is dead, but not quite... And, like in a scary fairy tale, the deceased mother has one condition for her brothers—one that is both impossible to fulfill and impossible not to fulfill.
A dark, ironic, and psychologically accurate novel about a family united not by love, but by death.
