Classmates-friends, and at the same time newly inducted members of a literary circle, go to the old dacha of writer Gleb Borodaev, where not long ago a mysterious incident occurred. Some man named Dachnik, renting a room on the second floor of the old dacha, one day unexpectedly disappeared. Moreover, the door to his little room was locked from the inside, the window was closed, and there were no traces on the snow. The person simply vanished—as if he had never existed at all. Everything that happened was described in detail in Gleb Borodaev’s novella, and he even planned to write a sequel, but didn’t manage… And now young literary critics will have to find themselves right at the scene of the crime, and perhaps, finally, put an end to the whole tangled story.
