Alexander Voronov is a policeman in the village of Hara Turlak, lost in the steppes. To save his brother from murder charges, he is forced to accept an inherited gift — the opportunity to travel to the subtle world and communicate with the spirits of the dead. Now he is a shaman, able to unravel cases that were previously considered hopeless. However, danger awaits him in the astral — the ancient demon Boholdoy, who hunts for his soul.
