About the book: 2021 / 2004. The small Russian town of Skopin lives its normal life. But on April 24 a miracle happens. In one of the courtyards, a metal plate hiding the passage is slowly and carefully moved in the wall of the garage at ground level. A man of about fifty emerges from it, wearing worn black trousers and a shirt. Behind him is an angular, pale teenage girl. She squints against the light and waits for the man's instructions. An hour and a half later, she will return to the cellar under the garage, where she has already spent more than 3 years. But this time she will smile because for the first time she has a chance to escape. Publishing layout saved in PDF A4 format.
