About the book: 2016 / Every time there is a ruthless piece of iron on the next bump, either forgotten by someone in the trunk of an old jalopy, or specially left for the purpose of " so that life doesn’t seem like honey,” unceremoniously dug Victoria right under the ribs, she was ready to swear to anyone and whatever it takes that if this time she manages to get out of trouble, from now on - no journalistic investigations and other people’s problems! Your own shirt, or, if you like, your own ribs, as they say, is closer to your own person. “But what insolent people,” the self-willed journalistic thought went astray from the path of the righteous, “read a weak woman right in broad daylight in the very center of Moscow and into a dirty, stinking trunk! And it would be nice to be in some kind of Lexus or Range Rover, where at least you can lie not in the fetal position and breathe more than once, but then in a finished Lada, which is just about to fall apart on the next bump. This is simply out of the question! And who did I manage to annoy so much, if lately I have had literally all thirty-three “pleasures”, and all at once: from blackmail, threats and loss of work to the dubious joy of being transported in the form of a sack of potatoes to - I don’t know where... Well just wait with me: I won’t be if I don’t unwind this little ball one by one!” Will journalist Victoria Khmelevich be able to extricate herself from a deadly situation, what kind of “anthill” did she stir up during her next journalistic investigation, and will she be able to keep the “vow of non-interference” given to herself in a moment of despair? Read in the action-packed detective novel by professional journalist Veronica Veresk, “The Law of the Pendulum.”».
