In the summer of 1880, a group of scientists went on an expedition to the Caucasus to find the skull of a mythical golden ram, which the Argonauts once had been hunting for a long time. Local highlanders warned that the skull was stored in a cave on the mountain of death, but anyone who enters there is waiting for the inevitable destruction. Scientists only laughed at the superstitious fear of the elders. Having passed through incredible trials, they still got to the cave and - Oh, a miracle! - In fact, they found a skull there with golden horns.
And then something inexplicable began to happen. One by one, members of the expedition began to die. The first victim is a geologist. He simply did not wake up, and they found a wound on his neck - thin and straight, as if a sharp claw of bat struck a throat. Then the botanist went to the mountains for herbs for herbarium and did not return - he was covered with an avalanche. Already under Tiflis, the well -being of the zoologist, who stemmed in the evening ... Miraculously the surviving researcher Makar, returning to Moscow, immediately turned to the private detective Marmeladov for help ...
Complete immersion in the atmosphere of the old Moscow century - with its elaborate manners, merchant removal and animal cruelty ...
