This is a story about ordinary people who, by the will of circumstances, find themselves drawn into an unusual, terrible story, where human life ceases to be the main value, where the settling of personal scores and the purely mercantile nature of relationships dictate the course and cause-and-effect logic of events. Three women of different ages, not dissimilar in any way and unfamiliar with each other, one day receive news that their lives are in real danger. It is also surprising that "letters of happiness" come to each of them "from the other world," because the author who sentenced them to execution-a retired mathematician-died a month before the events described. Women who find themselves in such a paradoxical, almost surreal situation naturally seek protection under the shadow of the law. However, unraveling this tangle will not be easy. Moreover, each of the heroines will do everything possible not only not to help the investigation, but will try to hide from the investigator the most important thing, that same treasured "skeleton in the closet" that makes you wake up in a cold sweat for many years and remember it all your life.
