"The 69th book in the series ‘Private Investigation Fan Dasha Vasileva’
Dasha Vasileva would like to rest calmly during vacation season like all normal people—but it doesn’t work!
A sweet girl, Anna, turns to Colonel Degtyaryov’s office and tells him that her mother has gone mad. After her husband died, father of Anna, the woman tied her life to a certain Yuri Rogachev—a suspicious type of enormous proportions. Anna doesn’t believe in Rogachev’s love. He’s so sweet—straight-up sugar with honey, and on top of that chocolate. Yuri showers the mother with compliments and expensive gifts, but the eyes stay dull, like those of a dead fish. And then the mother ends up in the hospital with a heart attack, and soon after it’s her stroke that shatters her. Anna suspects the new husband poisoned his wife and asks the investigators to bring him to light. But instead of “clean water,” Dasha had to plunge into a swamp of disgusting family secrets. And in the process of the investigation, dive even deeper into the real swamp!
Well… the swamp smelled like ambrosia compared to the truth Dasha managed to find out.
Dar’ya Dontsova is the most popular and in-demand author in our country, a favorite of millions of readers. In Russia, more than 200 million copies of her books have been sold. Her work fills hearts and souls with light, optimism, and joy—and confidence in the future!
“Don’t ya—an unbelievable worker! I don’t know any other writer who works as much. I treat her with respect as a model of writerly diligence. Women need psychological support, and they get it from Dontsova. I myself read several of Dontsova’s novels. People of very different kinds read her—very busy business ladies, who need to switch off their heads for a while, and housewives who have a 15–20 minute break between take-you-and-pick-you-up children.” — Galina Yuzefovich, literary critic."
