Journalist Veronika Stakhova lived in Prague with her son Maxim, but she felt nostalgic for her work and decided to move to Moscow. There she quickly found a job at a publication and plunged into the creative process. However, her calm life was interrupted when she was assigned to investigate the death of the wife of a former company partner. From that moment on, Veronika was constantly under surveillance: strangers visited her apartment and she was attacked. Veronika began to wonder whether she should have returned to work at all.
