In the Siberian taiga, in the area of the fall of the Tunguska meteorite, the Airbus A 380 disappears without a trace. And from the place of his disappearance, something strange begins to spread, either a mass epidemic, or a mutant plant. A reconnaissance squad is sent to the zone, which must find the valuable cargo that was on board the plane and remove it from there. The writer Denis Merkuryev, who wrote a science fiction novel, suddenly realizes that the events taking place in it exactly repeat the story that happened to “A 380”. He intends to hide from the sight of the special services, and they begin to hunt for him. Denis Merkuryev is composing a new novel. Will the events described in it come true again? Will the writer-prophet become an object of persecution or worship? The fate of an extraordinary personality going to the pinnacle of fame is difficult and thorny.
