Private detective Pavel Sinichkin works in the city of Solsk, where he has a reputation as a god-given sleuth. Naturally, it is precisely such a professional that a respectable businessman turns to with a request to find his missing mistress, Alyona. According to the client, the woman is the very embodiment of charm and tenderness. However, Alyona is married, which did not prevent her from having an affair on the side. Sinichkin has no interest in other people’s problems, but the substantial fee suggests that the case will be far from simple.
And that is indeed the case. Before Pavel even has time to learn more about the missing woman, he finds her husband dead. This incident makes the detective doubt, for the first time, the truthfulness of his client’s words about Alyona’s character. Is this young woman really so simple and harmless? The deeper Sinichkin delves into the investigation, the more unsavory facts he uncovers, and he soon realizes that he is dealing with a very dangerous adversary.
