About the book: year / A man, tired of life, tries not to die of boredom, while at the same time losing the battle with a midlife crisis. This is understandable. Almost 40 years - no children, no wife, no apparent sense in moving my middle-aged body around the planet. But this barrel of ointment was not without a spoonful of honey. Ilya Belshtein has traveled this very planet far and wide, fortunately his income allows it - shadow activities in the digital space are capable of providing for their adherents more than at a reasonable price. During his next voyage, Belshtein has a nightmare, after which his life and he himself change dramatically. Ilya is drawn into the intrigues and bloody struggle of secret supra-world forces in the role of an instrument, a weapon for correcting global events. The hacker becomes an obedient deadly puppet in the hands, or rather the tentacles, of an ancient powerful creature, whose name, even if the initiates allowed themselves to pronounce it, was extremely rare, and only in a quiet whisper.
