The unfinished chess party in the picture of the Flemish artist and the mysterious inscription found on it under a layer of paint are becoming a key in the investigation of the brutal murders that occur today. Each of the heroes of the novel turns into a chess figure, which is involved in the devilish game that unfolded around. And the silent drama, reflected in the picture, receives a strange continuation after several centuries. Painting and mathematics, logic and history are placed in the novel for the service of accurate, perfectly worked out plot from the world of collectors and antiques. The action takes the heroes into the past and makes us find that time is not imperious over human passions. And, unlike chess, in reality, “nothing can only be black or white”: good is easily turned into evil, and a sacrifice to the executioner
