Professor Alexander Volokhov is a famous art critic, TV host, aesthete, and collector. His death didn’t surprise anyone: Volokhov was old; by all indications, he peacefully died of a stroke in a locked apartment, from which nothing had been stolen. But his student, principled (and therefore unemployed) journalist Inga Belova, accidentally learns that the apartment’s most valuable book—once presented by Jean Cocteau himself—has disappeared, and the professor apparently was murdered. Inga begins her own investigation…
The book raises compelling questions: a story linked to current times, corruption, teenage subcultures, relationships in the family, and much more. With the help of friends, Belova uncovers crimes, but not always does establishing the truth lead to punishment for the criminal. The villain may also get away with it—all as in real life. A gripping intrigue built on the classic detective model, and recurring characters whose relationships develop from book to book, keeping the same interest as uncovering the crime itself.
