Lawyer Talyzin was again asked to take part in the defense of the innocent. Drug dealer Ilya Kostomarov was killed, who should have many enemies, but everything points to one person - Stepan Fedorov. He is rich, self-confident and assures everyone that he is right. The lawyer's investigation showed that not everything is clear; during the investigation, many participants pursued their own goals. During the investigation, the circle of suspects expands: old family secrets make themselves known, the motives of the investigator, prosecutor, and detective involved in the investigation are revealed. The range of participants is wide; it is difficult to choose the true culprit among them. Moreover, Talyzin has to work in tandem, which does not make his work much easier. Is Fedorov innocent? This is what the lawyer has to find out.
