Burning Revenge

In Kuban, a “dry law” is flaring up. For the local criminal underworld, it’s not a problem but an opportunity: underground vodka can bring in huge money. Several hostile groups converge for a brutal showdown over a new grain market. It would seem they should just tear each other apart—until Captain of Police Valentin Suharev steps in. An experienced operative knows how to put overconfident gangsters in their place. The only thing he didn’t account for is one person: Karina—his former partner, who once left him for an influential official now shielding the criminal world. And it is Karina who becomes that very blow in the back that can break even the fearless captain…

Another tense plot about how feelings and principles are put to the test by merciless reality. This is a story about strength and love, about nostalgia for the time when they settled matters by “concepts,” and a man’s word meant something.
