The sweet apple of discord

In a small Volga town, the chairman of the trade union committee of a large plant, Yuri Trutov, was killed. The investigation, led by police lieutenant colonel Artem Malakhov, believes that the murder could have been ordered by Trutov's wife. Shortly before this, he sold a controlling stake in a large southern sanatorium and kept the money in the family's account. Also under suspicion is the deceased's mistress, Eva, the sister of local criminal authorities. Perhaps this was her response to unrequited feelings... Lieutenant Colonel Malakhov is trying to find a plausible version, meanwhile the suspects in the case unexpectedly start a real war with the police... Another gripping story in which human emotions undergo harsh trials by severe circumstances. The author-power, author-love, author-nostalgia - at times when strict concepts and real men ruled the world.
