The Gordian Knot

After discovering a police general murdered in his home, Major Firsova gets the coveted job of the department chief. While investigating this gruesome homicide, she uncovers a deeply hidden money laundering and poaching business, conducted by her so-called colleagues from the force. Very powerful people stand behind this lucrative criminal enterprise but it doesn’t stop the chief investigator. She perseveres in her quest for truth, despite threats to her life and her family’s safety and arrests the culprit — another top female brass, police general Synitsyna. Thinking that the nightmarish case is finally over and the criminal is behind bars, Major Firsova gets disillusioned. She finds Synitsina dead in her cell, apparent suicide by hanging. The fight is not over… or is it?
