In a small polar town, an accident occurs—a car falls from a bridge into a river. During the rescue operations, they discover the body of a girl tied to a piece of concrete at the bottom of the river. It turns out to be one of several girls who disappeared a few months earlier.
Detectives Igor Omelin and Kirill Smirnov find that all the missing girls were donors at the local hospital. They begin an investigation to determine whether it was just a coincidence or whether there is a connection between the girls’ disappearances.
This novel reminds us that behind an apparently calm setting, something sinister and threatening can always be hiding.
