1947. In a Kazan research institute, the accountant and cashier who delivered salaries to the staff have been robbed and killed. Witnesses remembered the flashy appearance of the robber: bright clothes, a noticeable yellow beret… Major Vitaly Shchelkuno, head of... the department for combating banditry, uses informants to establish the criminal's nickname — The Dandy. This guy once started with document forgery, and now he is engaged in robberies and murders. Furthermore, the criminal has one peculiar trait — whenever he goes on a job, he always dresses flamboyantly. However, no one knows for sure where this soul killer lives. The detectives would have to run around considerably before getting on the trail of the villain if not for a coincidence. One day at the market, The Dandy himself became a victim of a robber… A unique opportunity to return to one of the brightest periods of Soviet history — the post-war time. Real people, actual criminal cases, captivating plot twists. Characters resembling the iconic images from the film "The Meeting Place Cannot Be Changed." The spirit of the time, tenderly preserved in many families. An unusually realistic portrayal of the "kitchen" of everyday work of the Soviet militia.
