Lt. Col. Fomin (one of the protagonists of the previous detective of the same author's "The Dogs Wild," which was released as a book and go on sale in August of 2014) - a detective, so to speak, from God, and this is not in doubt, even his usual "clientele "- thugs of all stripes who have visited at least once in his powerful and tenacious paws. But here's the thing: at sunset service (six months before the events described in the new detective novel "Bloodsucker") Fomin received the same offer guidance (after persuasion longtime Tchaikovsky fighting each other) and finished (for the first time, by the way) a very responsible position in the internal affairs Yekaterinburg - first deputy chief Prizheleznodorozhnogo internal Affairs. That seemed to still have? Sit yourself in a cozy room, to shift from one place to the signed instructions and orders, pure minds, when required, the slave - leave the rest in the past, forget it. Not a bit of it! The past, it turns out, does not want to let go: now and then wakes up on Thomas detective and starts to haunt. Moreover, Fomin hits in history, he had to go round. I failed. Consequently, conflicts, hostility on the part of not only the direct boss, Colonel Vereykina and dislikes ... and, for example, the prosecutor Prizheleznodorozhnogo district Osipov, considering that Fomin - gag in each barrel, every hole in the nose of vanities. The atmosphere is tense hot when on duty and where reigned peace and grace (it was New Year's Eve on the Julian calendar) in subordinated district was committed brutal, totally unmotivated double murder of mother, combined with the savage rape her underage daughter. Yes, crime is not out of the ordinary and is a particularly serious. Yes, Fomin, most likely, had to go to the crime scene, since the duty of management. I went and did the right thing. But ... Value climb up to their ears? For what? Not have been better to rely on subordinates, and only occasionally to control their action? Alas! It spoke, and in a loud voice, natural detective, not respond to the call but could not. Thus, there is a serious crime. Formed by a team of investigators, led by senior investigator of the district prosecutor's office. This brigade Colonel Fomin was not included. Officially, yes - but actually ... He grabbed the heavy burden hoisted on their shoulders, groaning, dragged. Investigator Dworkin, unlike Fomina, and thought tugs tear: Apprehensive and looking over the heads, quietly doing business, which, incidentally, was carried out so-so. Initiative is punishable in Russia. Strange, in the opinion of some leaders of law enforcement agencies, agility Fomin seemed suspicious, and that relations were strained stronger. A Fomin? He puts his horn and, in spite of everything, drilling deeper and deeper. Gennady Murzin, author of the famous detective and the Middle Urals writer and journalist who remains true to himself: not only meticulously tells about the investigation of the aforementioned crimes, but also passing literary heroes urges to do other offenses; not only accurate in the description of certain investigative actions, and of psychological and deep, twisting inside the rotten nature of law enforcement officials; paints, sparing paints, eternal and not always rewarding confrontation between good and evil. Evil, by the way, often dresses up in the clothes of virtue, to get into the infamous face mask charming friendliness, and therefore see the truth is not always possible. And the last. novel "The Leech" The author has based on real events that he is hot on the trail described in a court of essays published in the regional legal newspaper. So, Gennady Murzin still adheres to its core principle - the principle of artistic truth. That's his style. Good or bad? Let the reader judge.
