It was 1994, the year the USSR collapsed. He received a letter from a woman in the city of Kurortny (her two children had been kidnapped, her husband had died, and she was being extorted). He quickly called the city's police and decided to come and work on the case. At the same time, someone began killing exclusively red-haired women, carving identical symbols into their bodies. They were usually hanged, and each one wore a funeral ribbon, identical to the other. In that city, he worked with Nadezhda Raikina (the head of the police) and Ivan Zlobin (he assists Raikina).
