Can a Komsomol member take an ax and kill five geologists in cold blood right in the middle of the taiga, and then go and drown herself in a swamp? A good story about a geological exploration expedition, taiga, bears, tents, mosquitoes, good people and other romance of the 70s. But Sosnovsky's hogweed has yet to be defeated. Yes, yes, the same one. Author's notes: All characters, habitats, bears and even some mosquitoes are fictional. There is some authorial chaos in the story. At the same time, many individual episodic scenes are taken from the real life of the author or his friends. Cover author - Vadim Kuz
