1921–1922. Not having had time to catch his breath after a trip to Reval, Vsevolod Vladimirov receives yet another assignment. This time his route is to Vladivostok. The situation there, to put it mildly, is far from easy. On one side — a coup and the seizure of power by a noble merchant, Merkulov; on the other — Japanese-American disagreements. The young Chekist will have to sort out the tense political situation unfolding in the Far East from within — from the very “brain of the White movement” — and make his forecasts for the future, even if they turn out to be completely ruthless and unflattering for the Soviet government.
