Vladimir Arkhipov lived quietly in a luxurious bachelor's "flat" with a loyal mastiff and had no intention of changing anything in his life. Everything happened against his will. His eccentric neighbor Lizaveta died and left him her apartment and her... adopted "orphan-girl." The orphan turned out to be an adult young lady named Masha, who impressed the lonely Arkhipov. But why didn't the neighbor leave the apartment to her? Perhaps because people from the sect "Path to Joy" were claiming her and began to besiege Masha immediately after Lizaveta's death? Then a half-brother from the province suddenly appeared and soon, they both disappeared. Concerned about their disappearance and thoughts of the strange death of his neighbor, Arkhipov visits the "unpleasant apartment" and finds the corpse of the sect's lawyer. How did he get here? Who killed him? Could it be... Masha?
