“Community” is the new book by Aleksey Ivanov, the best-known writer, historian, and screenwriter, author of bestsellers “The Gold of Rebellion,” “Geography Drank It Up,” “Dormitory on the Blood,” “Bluda i MUDO,” “The Heart of Parma”—together with the earlier novel “Psoglavtsy” it forms a duology about danngerologists—people who hunt for deadly dangerous artifacts of world culture.

And it’s in vain that the author of “Psoglavtsy” thought he could remain unrecognized under the pseudonym Aleksey Mavrin—by the virtuoso plot twists and brilliant style, readers easily recognized Aleksey Ivanov!

Top manager Gleb methodically fulfills his dream of a premium-class life. Prestigious and interesting work at a famous IT company, an apartment in Moscow, a good car, the desired woman, the best brands… “A person is his iPhone.”

But with the death of the genius IT manager and co-owner of the company, with the appearance of his beautiful daughter who was left without an inheritance, and with a mysterious inscription accidentally discovered on an ancient grave cross, Gleb’s measured life ends… And a strange, but unmistakable whiff of the plague sweeps over the modern, outwardly prosperous world.

Moscow lives with rallies, and on the barricades—bohemia… But on a fashionable internet portal, the topic of the plague, the Black Death, becomes popular. Participants of the mysterious community get drawn into an intellectual game, sharing references to an ancient disease— and ultimately become hostages of another game, ominous, deadly dangerous… but whose?!
