The Executioner at Large

In one of the city courtyards, the body of Victor Panteleev, who had been convicted twice for stabbing, was found. It turned out that the victim was involved in the execution of a well-known thief that took place some time ago. The investigation was entrusted to police colonels Guryev and Kryachko. The detectives concluded that both victims were connected to a gang of robbers who committed several large-scale robberies with murders. The bandits are still at large, which means there could be more victims. The operatives decide to decapitate the gang and set up an ambush for the leader. Neither Guryev nor Kryachko suspect that this time the villain will outsmart the experienced detectives…
