- Summary:
- The plot follows a union for veterans of the Afghan War in an industrial city and interweaves various threads. It takes place simultaneously during the Afghan War, the beginning of the 1990s, when the former soldiers opened their own businesses, as well as in the 2000s. The novel is not about money and not about crime, but about the Bad Weather in the shower, about a desperate search for reasons for which a person must trust the person in the world where only predators triumph. But it is impossible to live without trust. The greatness and despair have the same roots. The fact is that each of us runs the risk of inadvertently getting into the storm and not finding the way out, because of the Bad Weather - it is a refuge and a trap, salvation and destruction, great comfort and eternal pain.
