Two books concluding the most popular detective cycle of our time about the adventures of Erast Fandorin and his assistant Masa. Boris Akunin called the novel I Don't Say Goodbye to the last book in the series The Adventures of Erast Fandorin. Having received a bullet in the head in Baku ("Black City"), Fandorin miraculously survived, but fell into a coma. And he came out of it in the same miraculous way: the robber's shot on the train, where the faithful valet (and, perhaps, partner) Masa was carrying his unconscious master, brought him back to life. From that moment on, dramatic events and incredible characters haunt the detective in the vastness of revolutionary Russia. Red, white, green, and gray-brown crimson are involved in the action. The last thing that Erast Fandorin will try to do is to catch a Bolshevik spy at the headquarters of the Volunteer Army ... Alas, this is where the story of Erast Petrovich ends forever. And what about the inconsolable Masa? After the loss of his master and teacher, 63-year-old Shibata Masahiro returned to Japan, and he is full of strength and determination to follow his noble Path and the memory of Fandorin. "Just Masa" is a book about the adventures of the assistant and companion of the legendary detective after the alleged death of Erast Fandorin, as well as the backstory of Shibata Masahiro. A very stylish story with a Japanese flavor, where the net is a place for the yakuza, and the earthquake, and the bank robbery, and the royal gold, and even a love denouement ...
