The Daughter of a Special Agent

«The Goddess of Victory»

Young Nika grew up in a foster family and was left on the street after her mother's death: those she considered her relatives kicked her out of their home and forced her to sign a waiver of... property rights. It was the «rough 90s», finding a job was impossible, there was no money, and no roof over her head either. In complete despair, hungry homeless Nika agrees to have dinner with a cheerful drunken stranger and, finding herself in his apartment, accidentally discovers a stash containing a bag of diamonds. They are clearly of criminal origin, and Nika feels no guilt as she escapes from her new acquaintance with the precious gems in her pocket. She does not yet know that diamonds never go missing without a trace, they always come back, and then blood is spilled...
