The legendary detective duo of Leonov—Makovey.
A series of murders shook the small town of Sukhodolsk. First, in a single night, an entire family of farmers was killed—the mother, father, and two underage children. Three days later, the head of the rural administration was murdered, followed by the former chief of the regional police. The first theory proposed by Colonel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Lev Gurov—local drug dealers’ infighting—proved false. All victims were killed with the same pistol. But what else, besides the murder weapon, could unite people so different in status? Soon Gurov realizes that he has probably found the answer to this tricky question…
Nikolay Leonov, a former investigator of the MUR, knew firsthand how the most tangled criminal cases are solved. That’s why each of his books is a truthful, gripping story with an unpredictable intrigue and an unexpected ending. The main hero of these books, Colonel Lev Gurov, is a high-class detective, and besides that, he has a great many positive human qualities. Friends respect him, enemies fear him, and women love him. He’s a real homegrown Superman. The novels about Lev Gurov have attracted fans of domestic detective fiction for forty years without fail.
