Summer of 1945. The salute of the Great Victory died down and the country is gradually returning to peaceful life. From "fire yes into the fire" a young reconnaissance commander Volodya Sharapov falls, having come to the MUR for distribution, to the department for combating banditry. In the city the Black Cat gang rages, terrifying Muscovites. Captain Gleb Zheglov enters the fray with the bandits, for whom Sharapov soon becomes his right hand.

A grim, determined post-war procedural. The air is thick with the lingering shadows of conflict and the immediate threat of organized crime. It feels like a gritty, methodical hunt for elusive justice in a city rebuilding itself.
