Магия Зеро

«Mysterious Zero» shouted one poster. «Enigmatic Zero» echoed another. «Unique show!» the third, fourth, fifth... The illusionist Zero's performances have been resounding throughout Italy! One such evening of "unique, mysterious, and mystical" magic made the holidays of 15-year-olds Nina, Vanya, and Nastya unforgettable. In the most terrifying sense of the word. Nina spent a whole year in Sicily, far away from her native Petersburg - her family had to relocate here, hiding from persecution. The move changed Nina: she no longer sees dinosaurs in passersby (now there are tentacled monsters!), she only communicates with her best friends through the internet (until they come to visit!), and most importantly - she doesn't draw anymore (only in her imagination!). Something is haunting her, some unresolved story from her past life - a story connected to her parents. Evgeniya Ovchinnikova continues her detective trilogy about the talented, resourceful, but not very confident Nina. As in the book "Go and Come Back," in "Zero's Magic," the focus is not so much on the crime but on the development of relationships between the main and secondary characters. Now - on an international scale and with a keen eye on progressive science. Evgeniya Ovchinnikova, a three-time finalist of the "Kniguru" prize, in which the jury is made up of teenage readers, made her debut in the "KompasHyde" publishing house with a collection of stories called "Mortal Kombat and Other Nineties." The psychological detective novel "Zero's Magic" will captivate readers of middle and high school age. In this book, Ovchinnikova skillfully intertwines mystery, suspense, and personal growth, creating a thrilling and thought-provoking narrative. Through Nina's journey, readers will not only be immersed in the world of illusion and magic but also explore the complexities of family secrets and the power of self-discovery. With its relatable characters and intriguing plot, "Zero's Magic" is a captivating read for young adults.
