The total circulation of this author's books is more than 13 million copies. Oleg's return from the army was celebrated noisily. But not everyone at the holiday table had fun. This is because Oleg came not alone, but with his young wife. His uncle held a grudge against him, seeing his daughter Veronica in the place of the unfamiliar girl. Everyone hoped: the grievances would pass, Veronica would find someone else. But that was not the case. It was as if oil had been poured into the flames of revenge. The uncle began to “attach” to the new relative. And it ended with the old rake being found murdered. First version: this is the work of the offended Oleg. But it turned out that there is a force much more terrible than jealousy, and death alone is clearly not enough for it.
