If life has cornered you, make colorful lanterns out of paper, decorate this corner with them and live happily. Evlampia Romanova is not afraid of problems, but sometimes there are so many of them that even the Lamp is lost. Irina Golkina came to Max Wolf's office and said that her daughter was missing. The client called Alice a baby, a baby, a child. But it turned out that the "baby"... is twenty-four years old and she works as a teacher at a college. The mother literally took her daughter by the hand everywhere. So maybe Alice escaped from the annoying custody of her mother? Detectives took up the search and found out that on the eve of the disappearance, the girl was seen together with a student of their college Nikita Rakitin: young people were going down to the basement of the academic building. Nikita is an artist, a well—known illustrator of children's books in England, who recently returned to Russia. But his father is serving time in the zone for murder. Wolfe's team began to study the elder Rakitin's past, and then such skeletons fell out of all the cabinets…Daria Dontsova is the most popular and sought—after author in our country, a favorite of millions of readers. More than 200 million copies of her books have been sold in Russia.Her creativity fills hearts and souls with light, optimism, joy, confidence in the future!"Dontsova is an incredible hard worker! I do not know of any other writer who has worked so much. I treat her with respect, as a model of writer's diligence. Women need psychological support and receive it from Dontsova. I myself have read several novels by Dontsova in my time. It is read by very different people. And very busy businesswomen to turn off their heads for a while, and housewives who have a break of 15-20 minutes between taking and picking up the children." — Galina Yuzefovich, literary critic
