Being locked up with a murderer is hardly enviable—but such proximity worries Hector Harrow, the concierge of the hotel “Cavengrin,” not as much as the chaos on the desk. Such are Hector Harrow’s life priorities. Still, the mess will have to be forgotten, because Hector—and along with him everyone who was in “Cavengrin”—was locked in there until they figure out who killed the guest. And the main suspect is… Hector himself! Such a shock at seventy-three would break anyone, but Hector quickly pulls himself together. He is determined to restore his good name and tell the world the whole truth about what happened in “Cavengrin.” At the suggestion of an old friend Helen, the editor is retired—Hector writes a book about the incident. Even though an inexperienced author sometimes gets distracted by the landscape outside the window or by musings on the morals of the youth, you can’t deny his attentiveness and sense of humor. So, welcome to the hotel “Cavengrin”—a place where, in the price of the room, staff silence is usually included. But not this time. For the first time in Russian!
