In the near future, Russia is flourishing thanks to the discovery of a new alternative energy source. A PR man from the capital, Pavel, travels with journalists and bloggers on a press tour to the Far North, where they will be the first to see the process of extracting and processing valuable raw materials. The guests still don’t know that the outwardly prosperous town of Krasnopolyarsk has another side to it. A business trip with a strict schedule turns into an unpredictable survival contest. The group will face a mysterious epidemic, harsh cold, and the fatal consequences of human greed and cruelty. Will anyone make it out alive from this bloody trap? Who is to blame for what happened? And what kind of novel is this—horror, satire, or an objective look at our reality?
