In the midst of war and revolution, a sinister plot unfolds in the Russian capital of oil. When the Tzar's head of security is assassinated, Erast Fandorin is tasked with investigating a mysterious 'black city' mentioned by the killer. As he delves into the case, Fandorin finds himself in Baku, where corruption and greed reign supreme. However, their investigation is soon complicated by threats and attacks, forcing Fandorin to rely on an unexpected new ally. With war brewing in the Balkans, Fandorin must navigate a complex web of intrigue to uncover the truth behind the 'black city' before time runs out. As tensions escalate and the stakes grow higher, Fandorin's most difficult case yet becomes a desperate bid for survival.
