Hiding from her inadequate ex-husband, Inna came to work as a paramedic in a distant northern village. She was greeted warmly, but the official housing turned out to be completely unsuitable, and Inna was assigned to an apartment with the driver Vadim, a man with a difficult fate who had lost his family. At first, the girl was shocked by this option - how can you live under the same roof with a strange man? - but soon I got to know Vadim better and realized that there was no need to be afraid of him. Life was gradually getting better, but suddenly it became clear that an elusive killer was operating in the village, strangling women... As part of her duty, Inna had to examine the bodies of the victims, and the district police officer clearly hinted that Vadim was also among the suspects. But it is impossible to believe that the person with whom she developed a mutual sympathy is guilty of these terrible crimes.
