Pavel Astakhov dedicated his new lawyer thriller to the eternal theme of deceit and love. Artem Pavlov finally met true love - orphanage pupil Kristina Yasnova, a smart woman, a beauty and a completely successful businesswoman. One bad day, Christina witnesses a robbery and, in self-defense, breaks the robber’s neck. Since witnesses confirmed Christina's testimony, the police released her. However, soon the Investigative Committee detains Artyom’s beloved on suspicion of a brutal murder ten years ago. In some incredible way, fingerprints taken after the events in the fitness center coincided with those left on a knife found at the scene of a high-profile crime. Then the entire family of the criminal authority was slaughtered, and Christina was just studying in the same city and at the same time... Protecting her beloved from an unfair accusation is a matter of honor for Pavlov. But even in his most terrible dream he could not have dreamed of the terrible threat this story posed. And first of all for himself.
