Valentin Grinyov’s carefree student years were cut short by tragedy: he was hit by a tram and lost a leg. But this did not break him—he earned his degree, became an excellent engineer, and married the woman he loved, Nadezhda. Years passed, and their children faced trials of their own. Their son Yuri became an Emergency Situations Ministry rescuer, risking his life in conflict zones. Their daughter Eva fell in love with a young man with no serious intentions, while the youngest, Polina, was still going through a teenage rebellion. Fate throws the Grinyov family into extreme circumstances, but their notions of honor and dignity remain unchanged.
