The mysterious and terrifying murder of the photographer Nilov leads the criminal journalist of the Press Center of the City Police Department, Ekaterina Petrovskaya, to the town of Gorevsk. At the beginning of the 20th century, the only daughter of the factory owner Shubnikov, Aglaya, was found hanged in the clock tower. At that moment, the clock on the tower started going backwards, and then stopped forever. Since then, there has been a belief in Gorevsk that the spirit of the tower demands ritual sacrifices - and in return grants cherished wishes. A century later, strange murders resumed. And in front of Colonel Gushin, Ekaterina Petrovskaya, and the entire investigative team who arrived at the crime scene, the hands of the clock tower came to life and made several rounds backwards... Novels by the hereditary investigator Tatiana Stepanova allow the reader to enter the literary "room of fear." Mysterious murders, an almost palpable atmosphere of crime, the lingering and unsettling anticipation of something unknown and frightening... Tatiana Stepanova brilliantly manages to reproduce all of this. Chance encounters, everyday tasks, insignificant details are depicted in her detective stories in a special, dramatic light, as if an innocuous spring meadow before an approaching storm.
