Megre has long been following him – a man with a wild gaze of a stained; He dangles with a suitcase from Paris to Bremen or Liege. From there, this person sends a thick pack of banknotes – in his name and address, but in his shack … Burns these bills, lives the poor, and, finally, lets himself a bullet in his mouth. His documents in the name of Louis Zhenya are fake, in the suitcase – the old suit is clearly not his size, all in spots of dried blood … Megre still does not have time to start the matter, as a certain utombar, an artist shoots at him in the dark. In all his drawings, one and the same – hanged: on the gallows, lantern, on the cross of the bell tower of Saint -Foline. Who is this gallows, who was actually the wife and how are they connected with the pawnshop and his ominous plot?
