The adventures of Maxim Zverev and other victims continue. A martial artist, a GRU sniper, an ex-Deputy Minister of Finance, a former Katala recidivist and a Krav Maga instructor - they all find themselves at the very center of the anti-Brezhnev conspiracy. But after the removal of Brezhnev, the conspirators continue to remove other “Kremlin elders.” The Soviet Union is rapidly changing... Maxim again finds himself in a different past - in 1984. Apparently, this is a bifurcation point in the history of the USSR. The point when the country could go one way or another. But since back in 1977, thanks to Zverev and other “misfits,” changes had already taken place, Maxim ended up in a completely different country. No, it’s still the USSR, but something different. Soviet troops did not enter Afghanistan, but a civil war broke out in Tajikistan, neighboring Uzbekistan is burning, and other republics of Central Asia and Transcaucasia are uneasy. Was there anything that needed to be changed in the past? Did Maxim Zverev make a mistake?
