The materials in this book have nothing to do with real events and people. Although the heroes of the stories are our contemporaries.

He is a PR man trying to escape from the Russian reality. He moves to the Czech Republic and suddenly finds himself in a group of Russian hackers who have been hunted by the FBI for years. Or it's a university professor. Working in Britain, he is trying to unravel the reason for the disappearance of three lighthouse keepers and a detective who investigated the case back in 1913, on the eve of the World War, on a Scottish island known for its mystical atmosphere.
