Ivan the Terrible in the Maldives

Weary Ivan Tsarevich is capable of turning into Zmey Gorynych. However, private detective Podushkin will not start breathing fire, even if a man named Bob Solnechnolasovich appears before him and offers Ivan Pavlovich to advertise the company «Podushkin-Odeialkin». No sooner had the detective gotten rid of the annoying visitor than neighbor Iren came in and asked to talk to the daughter of her acquaintances, Katya Voykova. The girl’s father recently passed away, and nothing suspicious was found in Alexei Voykov's death, but Ekaterina believes that the businessman was murdered. Iren asks Podushkin to conduct an investigation for appearances' sake, to calm the frantic daughter. Delicate Vanya could not refuse, promising Katya to find her father's killer. It turned out that her suspicions were not so absurd. But as soon as Podushkin finished this challenging investigation, Bob Solnechnolasovich came again and turned all his logical conclusions into a heap of debris.

«Dontsova is an incredible hard worker! I don’t know any other writer who worked as much as she does. I regard her with respect as a model of literary diligence. Women need psychological support and receive it from Dontsova. I myself read several of Dontsova's novels at one time. She is read by very different people. And very busy businesswomen, to switch off their minds for a while, and housewives who have a 15-20 minute break between dropping off and picking up children.» — Galina Yuzevovich, literary critic
