Boris Krylov is a top-class criminologist. In his work, he uses paradoxical and non-obvious methods that help him unravel even the most complex crimes, for which his colleagues call him a modern Sherlock Holmes. Due to a divorce from his wife, a brilliant detective leaves the police and makes a living as a consultant on the set of detective series. But when his father, a famous surgeon, dies in a car accident, and he himself is seriously injured, Krylov begins his own investigation. My instinct tells me that the accident was planned: before his death, his father tried to tell him something. So Boris returns to his profession and gets a job as an expert in the investigative department, which is headed by Major Anna Voskresenskaya. Anna was once a student of Krylov. Now Krylov and Voskresenskaya will have to work together. While solving crimes, the heroes deal with their past and feelings for each other.

When Dr. Edwin Lorrimer, a forensic scientist working at a private laboratory is found killed, Detective Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh is sent to investigate. Dalgliesh had been in the area a few months previously investigating the murder of a young woman found in an abandoned car. There are several suspects: Lorrimer's subordinate, Clifford Bradley, who despises him; the new head of the laboratory, Maxim Howarth, who is jealous of his sister's relationship with him; a colleague, Paul Middlemass, who had a fight with Lorrimer. There is also a gruff and likely unethical policeman who was on the grounds of the laboratory at the time of the killing and a local pathologist who is raising his two young children after his wife leaves him for another man. When one of the suspects is also murdered, Dalgliesh learns a key piece of information.

Travis and Wendell are two down-on-their-luck New Yorkers who think they're relocating to a small town in Nebraska to open a nightclub. What they don't know is they've actually been abducted by a KGB operative and flown to the Soviet Union, where they'll unwittingly serve as "experts" on all things cool in America. The town, created expressly for KGB spies-in-training, is meant to serve as a training ground for Soviet agents. What can these two hapless Americans possibly teach the Soviet spies, and will they ever learn they are not actually in Nebraska?
