Everyone knew him. But he didn't know himself...
1904. Two girls were brutally murdered in Kazan. Their neighbor, Elvira Shimanova, was also injured: her one-year-old son disappeared from their apartment, the criminal struck her in the face with an iron, and stabbed her body with a knife. Elvira survived, but lost her sight and hearing, and was therefore unable to testify. Investigator Ivan Fedorovich Volovtsov, a judge specializing in especially important cases, suspects the victim's husband, Zinovy Shimanov. A neighbor saw him that day with a package under his arm. However, it later turns out that the suspect has an alibi... The complex chain of investigation tightens until the detective overlooks one detail, forgotten by the killer at the scene...
A historical detective story about a crime from the beginning of the last century. The author so captivatingly immerses us in the atmosphere of that time that we literally hear the rumble of the pavement, the noise of the city market, the ringing of bells and the shrill whistles of the policemen...
