She always knew what she wanted from life. And she always did what she wanted. Mom called Catherine selfish for this. My ex-husband is an idiot and a bastard. Friends are the darling of fate. True, there was only one friend, but what a friend... It was with him that Ekaterina Starkova quarreled. I went to a godforsaken town to dispel my melancholy.

Amusing herself with unobtrusive observation of her young mysterious neighbor, she could not think what the unexpected interest would lead to. Firstly, she will be accused of a terrible crime. Secondly, her life would be at risk. And thirdly... the first two points are enough to go crazy. And most importantly, there is nowhere to wait for help!!!
