The filming process of the eight-part detective took place on the territory of the Samara region. To participate in the production attracted more than seventy local artists from Samara and Togliatti. For the protagonist, the writers chose an unusual cover: the fraudster officially works in the police as a freelance consultant without the right to wear a form and a service weapon. The slogan of the criminal project created by the company "AMEDIA" specifically on the order of the "Fifth channel", sounds like: "To catch a crook, you need your crook."
