He knows he’s doomed. Women love heroes—lucky, strong, brave—and he is… a homeless person, cast out of life. Who needs him? And why did he write to her? Even he didn’t know. He wasn’t even sure she would get his note…
She was simply the last living impression of his free life, his last love—strange and unrealized. He expected nothing from her. He hoped for nothing.
Masterfully constructed intrigue, an unexpected resolution, and a beautiful literary style—these are the hallmarks of the detective stories by the well-known writer Maria Shkatulova, who has won the love of readers.
