Sasha Gardin, a friend of the amateur detective Mieczyslaw Bulgarin, disappeared without a trace, and with him the statue that had recently appeared in his possession disappeared - a bronze warrior lying on a banquet bed, on the pedestal of which “Spartakus” is written. According to legend, Spartakus is capable of changing the past of its owner. If Gardin disappeared without a trace, then the thread leading to the statue can be found - there are witnesses who saw how Sasha’s ex-wife took it out. However, Valeria swears that she has never seen any bronze warrior. Moreover, it was she who turned to Bulgarin for help in the hope of finding Gardin.
