The action of the novel takes place in the USSR in 1982. Vitalik, an ordinary teenager, comes to visit his grandmother in the summer. Here he meets his old friends and finds new ones. Summer, the river, his grandmother's warm pies, nighttime gatherings around the campfire and the long-awaited holiday of Ivan Kupala.... What else can you dream of?

At first, nothing bothers him here, except for a couple of random oddities, which, as it turns out, will be something more than it seemed at first glance....

Whether the protagonist will be able to unravel the mystery of this place - depends only on you!
