About the book: 1999 / Two bloody murders were committed in Moscow during one night. Two retired friends, high-ranking government officials in the recent past, died. At the same time, a close friend of the senior investigator for particularly important cases of the Prosecutor General’s Office of Russia, Alexander Borisovich Turetsky, begs him to find her missing husband, an FSB colonel. Only high professional skill and courage allow the “important” Turetsky and his friends, Merkulov and Gryaznov, to help the woman, and most importantly, to prevent the catastrophe impending on the country.
