Miracle, mystery and authority. Zvontsova E.

1887. Moscow. Christmas Eve. The young detective Ivan K. Over and over again recalls the loud crime of a ten -year ago, where the nephew of his older friend became a victim. Fortunately, they quickly found the perpetrator and called on to Cowl. Then everything seemed obvious, but new details make him doubt the old evidence.

Ivan lost peace - because he destroyed the life of a person who, perhaps, did not harm anyone. Now, in order to find out the truth, he will have to play according to the rules of Dickens: to encounter three ghosts and follow them, wherever they lead and no matter what they demand. And then-somehow to accept this truth, because it is much easier than Ichudovic than it could have suggested.

The book of Ekaterina Zvintsova is inspired by the novels “The Brothers Karamazov” and “Crime and Punishment”. Together with recognizable characters, the reader will again think about what one tear of the child is worth.
