In addition to formulating the three laws of robotics and other serious things, Asimov also wrote entertaining stories for magazines. Once he received an offer from the editor-in-chief of Gallery magazine to publish detective stories of no more than 2,000 words once a month, so that the first page would present the circumstances of the case without a denouement, and the inquisitive reader would try to guess for himself, while the lazy reader could turn the page and immediately find out what was going on. The collection consists of these stories. Each sketch always begins the same way - in a certain Union Club four retired special agents gather to talk and have a few drinks, and among them - Griswold, who at first pretends to sleep, and then, having listened to his comrades, at the right moment wakes up and tells a life story connected with their conversation.
