Long ago, a powerful civilization flourished for thousands of years. Through a magical ritual using two golden coins, the Chief Keeper of the Sun could prolong the ruler’s life. However, savages stole the ritual coins, which led to the fall of the state, the loss of the sacred artifact, and the disappearance of the relic for centuries.
In modern-day St. Petersburg, an amateur detective named Nadezhda Lebedeva gets drawn into dangerous events. In the Hermitage, she is captivated by an astonishing exhibit—an ancient golden coin. An unknown person steals the coin, and the next day a charred body of the main suspect is discovered. All evidence points to a mysterious man who seems to have fooled time.
