What’s the best way to escape reality, change your surroundings? You need to radically change your life, break all old ties, and do something you would never have dared to do before. For example, buy a yacht. Dash two thousand kilometers to the sea and start a new life. Sounds sweet and so tempting, doesn’t it? But the catch is always there. And life loves to throw surprises at you. First, your past catches up with you. Then it’s the present that gives you a shove. And how—because getting right into the middle of trouble between an influential member of the city council and a brand-new country club is not exactly easy! Oh, and that strange cane with a bear’s head… Almost a magical item—but is it really? Or maybe it can help solve some of the new and old problems?
