Believe/Do not believe

The dual, even triple world of the novel, where the bandit town of St. Petersburg in the early nineties coexists with mystical murders having ritual undertones. From the very first pages, Inna Borisova creates intrigue by adding otherworldly colors to ordinary events. Strange visitors, inexplicable sounds, frightening descriptions — reality or madness? Here, the reality of the nineties is convincingly portrayed, showing how fates were decided in legal and criminal courts. How one word could solve all problems. “Believe/Do not believe” is a novel that will not leave even the hardened hearts indifferent, as the climax of the novel and the resolution of the first part are too unexpected and painful. Sometimes our loved ones pay for our mistakes.
