No Time to Die

In post-war Podmoskovye, a maniac has emerged. He kills his victims, teenage girls, with particular brutality: he gouges out their eyes, cuts their mouths, and then strangles them. A pioneer leader named Olya barely escaped the killer, having accidentally found... herself in the woods. By a stroke of luck, the girl survived. Her friend Kolya Pozharsky is eager to personally catch the criminal, who seems to appear at every turn. He is ready to sit in ambush with the police, participate in raids, and pursue suspicious characters. But the murderer remains invisible and elusive each time. The young detective is close to despair when fate presents him with a real chance to stop the evil…

The atmosphere of the formation of the post-war generation resonates with many readers, when the spirit of youth and freedom intoxicatingly prevails. When from "anything goes" to "stop, I will shoot" is just one step.

Criminal novels about a time that is still cherished with great reverence in many families. Characters reminiscent of the iconic images from the film "Goodbye, Marginal Moskovites".
