The beginning of the 70s. Major Cherkasov and his team are investigating a new case. This time we are talking about robberies. And this is the sphere of management for combating theft of socialist property (UBKhSS). During the robberies, the bandits mercilessly kill witnesses. The robberies are well organized and well thought out. And someone very knowledgeable prepares them. The leadership decides to unite the efforts of two departments of the Moscow militia against the "outlaws": the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the UBKHS. Together they are preparing an operation to arrest the gang.

The third film of the project about Cherkasov's task force is "Goznak". Based on another famous story - the robbery of the State Bank of the Armenian SSR in 1977, when the Kalachyan brothers swept the treasury for one and a half million rubles (two million dollars at the then exchange rate). It was the largest kidnapping in the Soviet Union. 1967 year. Moscow. A fashion model from the House of Fashion was killed. A group of Major Cherkasov arrives at the crime scene. He urgently introduces his man, Sonya Timofeeva, into the Fashion House, whose main task is to obtain information about the relationship between the employees of the Fashion House. Soon, another fashion model dies. And simultaneously with this murder, a very daring crime is taking place - the robbery of Goznak ...

Ivan Cherkasov, as always, is investigating a complex and complicated case. A student of an architectural institute was thrown from the roof. His mother committed suicide. The suspects are residents of an elite house, cultural figures.

1975 - Cold War between the USSR and the USA, an arms race. Nuclear physicists are working hard. In the Soviet Union, a leak of classified information about the development of the Satan rocket is becoming apparent. It would seem, how can a police major be connected with the intelligence of the special services? However, it was he, Ivan Petrovich, dismissed from the Moscow Criminal Investigation Department, working as an ordinary precinct officer, who provided invaluable assistance to the KGB in the capture of an American spy.

1980 year. Pre-Olympic Moscow. The MUR people were tasked with preventing a single crime in the capital, clearing the city of all unreliable elements. Even the slaughter department is involved in the execution. Cherkasov and his team are entrusted with the fight against prostitution and "bad luck." But, instead, Ivan Petrovich is forced to investigate one murder after another. In the center of events is a bandit named Skull who recently left the prison. Almost all of the murders committed take place under the Skull, but there is no direct evidence of his involvement in the crimes. It is impossible to prove his guilt, but at the same time his innocence is under great doubt: as if someone invisible constantly saves the Skull from death, clearing the way for him. But who might be interested in this?

1978. Cherkasov's group begins a new investigation: a young gamer Kira Miller and her lover Colonel Potapenko were killed at a dacha near Moscow. It turns out that shortly before her death, Kira lost 400 thousand rubles in a katrana - an underground casino.

They have a whirlwind romance. But one day, in front of Sonya, Boris commits a crime. Realizing that she is in danger, he looks for a way to save her.
