A party at the apartment of young businesswoman Marina Mukhina ended with the death of a guest—Sonya Goldman’s daughter. Everything points to the apartment’s owner being guilty. But Marina swears she didn’t kill Sonya. As soon as lawyers Efim and Bella start working on the case, they immediately notice details that don’t fit the general pattern. Bella’s friend, Natasha Navitskaya, trying to find out the reasons behind Sofia’s conflict with her father’s young wife, Nina, and the girl’s expulsion from her parents’ home, comes upon the trail of a long-ago story: a company of “majors” in an SUV killed a pedestrian and faced no punishment.
In an inexplicable way, this story got a continuation at a party at Mukhina’s six years later. And then there’s the irresistible Vorkuta-born thief, Aleksei Inozemtsev, who opens a branch of his business in Saint Petersburg! While helping his secretary, Alina Dobrovolskaya, choose a location for a club, Natasha finds something connected to the tragedy in Ligovka in 2018. Tracing the link between these threads won’t be easy. Someone worked hard to hide the secrets of the past.
