The Street of the Mad Pharmacist

1900. Women are dying on the streets of Petersburg. Is it a disease, a coincidence, or murders after all? Reporter of the ‘Petersburg Newspaper’ Lev Shubin is convinced: the pharmacy of Dr. Pelya is to blame.

2024. An attack on a girl has occurred in Paris. Is it mere hooliganism or an episode of serious crime? Lieutenant of the Parisian ‘criminal police’ Emma Loran is convinced: the pharmaceutical conglomerate AlBina-farm is to blame.

And the tour guide Artem Zubarev is not connected to either Pelya's pharmacy or the conglomerate. Yet it is he who will have to pull the strings to unravel the knot of crimes.
A new meeting with the hero of the novels ‘Smiley on the Asphalt’ and ‘The Web of the Past’ will not leave fans of historical detective stories indifferent!
