Lesson in Forensics

A topical acute social detective by Chingiz Abdullayev.
The result of nearly four years of silence.
Now the famous detective knows the answer to the main question of existence.
The magnificent expert Drongo has changed his attitude towards life.

Drongo, along with his wife,... is staying at the estate of an old friend, the former vice-premier Elbrus Alkhassov.
All the extended family of the retired official has gathered here: his brother and son, daughter with her husband, as well as guests and household workers. High social status, prosperity, respect… What else is needed to meet old age happily?
But at first glance, the family of Elbrus Alkhassov seems idyllic. Many obvious and inexplicable things do not escape the perceptive Drongo.
The atmosphere in the mansion is rapidly heating up. Mutual hatred can no longer be hidden.
And the first death comes. Then the second, the third…
Drongo begins the investigation and suddenly realizes: unbeknownst to him, he has provided the murderer with an ironclad alibi…

This is an indispensable novel for fathers and children. An eternal theme in the brilliant execution of a master of the detective genre.
The novel is imbued with the spirit of quiet sorrow that the author feels regarding the moral character, morals, and cynicism of the current generation. This novel is noticeably different from all his previous works.
