About the book: 2022 / A chain of strange events takes place in a small village near Tula: a chicken crows a rooster, fresh milk turns sour, mad dogs attack people. And it seems that for each case there is a normal explanation, but there are too many incidents. Local stompers from the OBKhSS - the department for combating chaos, creatures and entities - call Nikolai Dergunov for help. He is investigating the case, but there is nothing to cling to: there is no outburst of negative energy, and there is no motive for the crime either. But is it really so? Who is behind the so-called Witch Case, and will Nikolai be able to solve it??
