The Fury of the Cherubim

Ada is a small-time figure in a big publishing house, assigned to the capricious and nasty writer Vodopyanova. Together with her, Ada ends up at a closed party in honor of the richest and most famous writer in the world arriving in Moscow—and accidentally becomes a witness to the murder of a star. Meanwhile, the victim’s handbag—the one the criminals were hunting for—ends up with Ada, and inside she finds a frightening little rag doll. A search on the Internet clarifies it: it’s the so-called agate (agatka), the best helper of every witch. In truth, Ada doesn’t believe in witches—but what if the wishes she says out loud start coming true?

With her new book “The Fury of the Cherubim,” the well-known writer Anton Leontyev opens an author’s cycle of adventurous-mystical novels—“The Witch by Misunderstanding of Ada Bulgakova.” Antique artifacts that belonged to powerful witches end up in Ada’s hands by accident. Before this, Ada not only didn’t believe in witchcraft—she didn’t even think about it. But now her strangest desires begin to come true, and that pushes the girl to разобраться in what’s happening.
