About the book: 2017 / The police have long suspected that somewhere on the outskirts of the empire there is a special criminal enterprise helping bandits launder marked money and securities. “Big laundry room” - that’s what the detectives called it. As soon as the Police Department had a lead leading to Tiflis, Lykov went to the Caucasus to conduct an investigation. On the spot it turned out that the services of the Tiflis Treasury for laundering stolen money were used by scammers, bandits and terrorists from all over the country. The investigation of the capital’s guest was not to the liking of the leaders of the “laundry room”. As soon as Lykov began the investigation, important witnesses began to die one after another. Someone was clearly leading the detective astray... and leading him straight to death.
