Description
1887. Moscow. The Eve of Christmas.
Young detective Ivan K. repeatedly remembers the high-profile crime from ten years earlier, when the victim was his older friend’s nephew. Fortunately, the guilty party was quickly found and brought to justice. Back then, everything seemed obvious—but new details make the old evidence questionable.
Ivan can’t find peace, because it was him who destroyed the life of a person who—possibly—didn’t harm anyone. Now, in order to uncover the truth about the past, he will have to play by Dickens’s rules: encounter three ghosts and follow them wherever they lead him, whatever they demand. And then—somehow accept that truth, because it’s much simpler and more monstrous than he could have imagined.
A new book by Ekaterina Zvonțova is inspired by the novels "The Brothers Karamazov" and "Crime and Punishment." Along with recognizable characters, readers will once again have to think about what’s truly worth a child’s tear.
