About the book: 2003 / “...Larissa didn’t listen. She sat quietly in a chair and indulged in dreams about how tomorrow she and Roman and Irina would go to the dacha, how they would ride on a boat, not listening to the lamentations of her mother and aunt. But then the door swung open, and Ekaterina Andreevna appeared on the threshold. “Roma, Roma!” - she screamed. – Listen to what’s going on here! You can go crazy! Tatyana has disappeared! – What Tatyana? – Roman asked mechanically, although he was not interested at all. “What kind?” – the mother-in-law clasped her hands. - Our neighbor, from the second entrance! The second day I’m not at home! Everyone is listening! You, Roma, quickly run and sort it out! I think this is just your thing! – Stop, stop! – Roman cooled the ardor of his mother-in-law. -Where to run? For what? Why on my part? - Why! You studied to be a lawyer! – she explained with impenetrable logic. – What does lawyers have to do with it? Who needs to be protected? – Don’t protect! And look for Tatyana! Maybe something happened to her?…»
