Major of the Investigative Committee Marina Pichugina or, as her close people call her, Manya, moves from Moscow to the small town of Savelyevsk. This is not a link and not the result of capital intrigues. Pichugina herself asked for a transfer to the province. Having grown up in a local orphanage, the heroine hopes to find her father in Savelyevsk, whom she mistakenly believed to be dead. In addition, leaving the capital for investigator Pichugina is a way to forget unhappy love. However, the search for her father turns out to be much more complex and dangerous than Mana imagined; it is almost impossible to forget the past, and her new colleagues perceive her with hostility. To top it all off, a huge and wayward shepherd, Grunya, falls on the fragile girl's head.
