Larisa's lover Kostya was shot to death with a pistol in his company. On the table at the crime scene, there was a bottle of fruit wine that Larisa liked and a box of candy. The door was locked securely without any signs of forced entry. Clearly, Kostya's murder was related to someone he knew. Larisa also owned a pistol of the same model, and someone had seen her car near Kostya's company that night. As a result, Larisa was subjected to intense interrogations by the authorities. Just when Larisa was at her wit's end, her friends Alisa and Miroshin orchestrated a shootout between gangsters. On one of the dead gangsters, a note was found, written in his own hand: "I killed Kostya." Is the case really that simple?
Exhausted both physically and mentally, Larisa went on vacation to a villa with her husband and son. By chance, she discovered her pistol on the bedside table. Her husband admitted to killing Kostya.

Meanwhile, the playboy Igel, who had been pursuing Larisa for a whole year, took advantage of the situation and entered her life.
In short, this is a uniquely conceived, highly readable emotional detective novel.
