The sky is in diamonds. The taming of the red horse. Suddenly the hunter runs out (a set of 3 books)

The sky is in diamonds.
The Country of Soviets lives better, more and more fun - at least in the images of propaganda. The first Soviet comedy is being removed. Brave marches are written, life -affirming operettas are placed. And in Leningrad, meanwhile, the actress was killed. Is this a crime on the basis of passions? Or is it associated with stolen jewelry? Or is the reason lies in secrets that the strong new Soviet world would prefer to bury forever? The investigator of the threat to Vasily Zaitsev will look at the scenes of the past.
The taming of the red horse.
In the yard 1931. Future Red Marshals and unfinished horse riders of tsarist Russia are engaged in improving the Oryol breed of trothes. The state is also occupied by breeding on a large scale - by violence and hunger, indicative processes and catching saboteurs, the Soviet breed of people improves. Investigator Zaitsev is taking up the case of the death of horses. But it is no longer as important as he will find a criminal, the most important thing-whom during the investigation he will be able to push out a terrible red horse out of the hooves ...

To connect the rational with the irrational, to translate the sticky horror into the language of the good old police protocol - is such a task for the most ordinary investigator of the threat?
