The disgraced oligarch Boris Sosnovsky, who received political asylum in London, is eager to regain his lost influence. His last chance is to place his protege in the presidential chair. The oligarch is trying to carry out the murder of the political rival of his creature Pavel Bashmanov. In order to discredit the Russian authorities, evidence is planted at the crime scene that clearly points to the FSB's trail, which, as intended, causes a colossal response in the press. However, Bashmanov survives, and his rating is growing rapidly. Sosnovsky has no choice but to throw all his strength into eliminating the surviving politician, otherwise he risks losing absolutely everything.
