Murder in an Ancient Manor
The first book in the series of investigations by the wizard Skay.
Skay, a wizard, receives what seems at first like a straightforward assignment: inspect a manor that has been passed to the client by inheritance. However, almost immediately it becomes clear that something is amiss in the house and around it. In the pond they find items belonging to the gatekeeper, who, as was believed, had left after the master’s death; the doors open by themselves; and suddenly boot prints appear on the meadow. In the abandoned estate, someone is clearly still there — and the very person who hired him apparently is hiding the truth about himself.
Murder in a Border Castle
A new case for the wizard Skay.
A thread of an investigation connected with a mysterious artifact that drains magical power leads to the border castle of Gарт de Монt. On assignment from the secret service, Skay, along with his friends, goes there posing as ordinary travelers to find out who is behind what’s happening. But already on the first night in the castle, a murder occurs: a servant is poisoned. This doesn’t look like an accident—someone is sweeping the trail away or trying to frame Skay. He will have to unravel both the crime and a whole tangle of family secrets of the castle’s residents.
Doctor Falk and Summer Cottage Murders.
Cozy investigations in an early 20th-century summer-cottage settlement on the shores of the Gulf of Finland!
Doctor Vasily Ottovich Falk—an aesthete, a pedant, and a committed skeptic—never wanted to get involved in murders and planned to spend the summer calmly, as usual, at his favorite “Green Meadow,” where he comes every year from Saint Petersburg.
But almost right after his arrival, he is called to the house of an elderly widow: in the morning, she is found dead… Shortly before her death, she told Falk that at night a gray monk appears in the garden—an unmistakable sign of an impending death.
The doctor doesn’t believe in grim omens and quickly realizes: a murder has taken place in the settlement. And the more stubbornly Vasily Ottovich tries to stay out of it, the more deeply he is drawn into searching for the culprit—because it soon turns out that reasons to wish ill upon the deceased were practically for every summer-cottager.
Strolls, swims, and tea in gazebos—summer life in the Russian Empire.
