An action-packed novel telling the story of the struggle of investigative agencies against organized crime. I confess with honor that the appointment as a regional prosecutor and the awarding of the class rank of State Counselor of Justice of the third class came as a surprise to me. At first, I didn’t even know whether to be happy or not: the burden of responsibility was considerable. And then, life, as you know, is not a straight board. Sometimes she makes such a turn that it is difficult for the most experienced traveler to stay on. If you fall apart, you won’t be able to pick up the bones... In the story that I want to tell, there are moments in which I was not directly involved. Therefore, they are described from the words of others and on the basis of documents.Z. P. IZMAILOV, Prosecutor of the South Sea Region
