About the book: a year / Ten days in the Zone - a lot or a little? Many experienced stalkers will say that this is not enough. Many new lockpickers who died on the first day would say that this is ten times more than it takes to die. So Andrei stayed in the Zone for only ten days. Experienced people will say that this is not enough to decide whether to stay here and become a stalker or leave forever - the difficulties that await every newcomer may seem too small. Beginners will say that this is more than enough to lose their minds here on the very first day. What forces and how far can Andrey go in pursuit of money??
