About the book: 2022 / Senior investigator of the Investigative Committee Orest Volin takes on the investigation of the theft in the house of a famous collector of Chinese porcelain. Among the stolen items is a Chinese Buddha Mile, which is not particularly valuable, but is larger in size than other stolen items from the rare collection. During the search operations, Orest Volin learns about the famous Chinese diamond “Buddha’s Tear”, which according to legend had enormous magical powers. In 1911, the diamond was stolen and sent abroad in just such a Chinese bobblehead. It's unlikely that the diamond is still hidden in the figurine, but now someone has come after the treasure's former vault. To whom and for what? Meanwhile, Volin’s old acquaintance, General Vorontsov, finds the story of the diamond in the diaries of court adviser Zagorsky. And Volin takes up the diary, which tells about the events taking place in China and Tibet in 1914... The continuation of the ANONYMOUS project will immerse you in the atmosphere of the East of the early twentieth century, rich in spy stories and diplomatic tricks. But the main mystery is who is hiding behind the author’s pseudonym?
