Going to visit a friend, Kotya Yablokova had absolutely no plans to become the heroine of a crime story. But on the very first evening of her stay in St. Petersburg, she was accused... of stealing a priceless rarity - an ancient kokoshnik. What was left to do? Just try to get it back. Of course, it’s difficult to do this alone, especially if you haven’t done anything like this before. It’s good that the Cherny brothers, Ignat and Larik, were nearby, and one of them was very interested in helping their pretty neighbor. But nowadays, a kokoshnik costs a lot of money, so no one is going to return it just like that... The plotline of Elena Dorosh’s action-packed novels is always based on a simple human story. They attract with an unusually cozy atmosphere, sincerity and deep psychologism in the description of human feelings. Elena Dorosh writes for those who do not become despondent, are not afraid of challenges and expect only good things from life. Her books are not just detective stories. They are not only about love. Each reveals a fascinating, sometimes little-known side of human existence.
