The Detective with a Special Instinct

The war has only just ended. Demobilized Pavel Gorin hurries to see his fiancée. But unexpectedly he finds her at home murdered. Pavel decides to find the killer himself and returns to service in the criminal investigation office where he worked before the war. Meanwhile, a gang is running amok in the city, with special cruelty dealing with everyone who gets in its way, as well as with witnesses. Obviously, an experienced and ruthless person is behind the gang. But what if the girl’s murder is also the work of these scoundrels? This version hooks Gorin—especially since one very suspicious individual comes into the sights of the investigation…

A unique chance to return to one of the most vivid periods of Soviet history—in the postwar years. Real people, real criminal cases, and gripping plot twists.

Characters reminiscent of iconic film images from “The Meeting Place Cannot Be Changed.” The spirit of the time carefully preserved in many families. An unusually realistic depiction of the “kitchen” of everyday work of the Soviet militia.
