An hour before dawn

The year is 1946. Captain Denis Zhuravlev returns to civilian life and gets a job in the militia. His boss, Major Shumeyko, nicknamed Satan, is a man with a difficult character, but he achieves his goals at any cost. Zhuravlev appears in the team just in time: a gang of criminals, nicknamed the Tick, is operating in the city, and in order to catch him, an extraordinary plan is needed, which Zhuravlev undertakes to implement. However, it soon becomes apparent that a war going on in peacetime, when it is unclear who is a friend and who is an enemy, is even more confusing than the war from which he has just returned.
