About the book: 2015 / Denis turned thirteen when the New Zone was formed in Moscow, and he lost his parents in a dying city. Even three months in the epicenter of the disaster was enough to change the child forever. If it weren’t for the legendary stalker Raven, who took the boy out of the former capital, he would have been an emionik - a creature ideally suited for life in the perimeter, but no longer a human. And so, after five years, Denis is a member of the Trust clan, capable of recognizing the properties of an artifact or an anomaly at a glance, as well as feeling the emotions of the people around him. The clan leader is in no hurry to send his best specialist to the perimeter, but the Zone never takes into account the plans of people. She eagerly awaits the return of the child taken from her, who is destined to become one of her Masters.
