However, on her way, she becomes the only witness to a terrible accident — an unknown person has fatally hit a man. Shocked, Larisa manages to remember several details about the car: its color, model, and, most importantly, the talisman on the windshield — a malachite-colored crab with red eyes. She is unable to see the driver's face — at the moment of the accident, he fell face-first onto the steering wheel, and the next second he drove away and disappeared. Larisa arrives late at the theater, where she meets the new soloist Gleb Sitnikov and falls in love with him at first sight! But in his behavior, she notices some oddities that lead her to terrible suspicions…
