About the book: 2010 / It is generally accepted that the Zone is unstable, but even in this instability there are established foundations. For example, everyone knows what to expect from the cordons and the military controlling the perimeter. General Khvorostin takes over part of the perimeter under his command. A new broom sweeps in a new way. Khvorostin is confident that he knows what and how should be organized in the Exclusion Zone. The general begins his game at his own peril and risk. And his ambitions are much broader than sole control over the perimeter. Control of the entire Zone is at stake.
