Synopsis

Young artist Dasha Smirnova comes from Saratov to Moscow to change her life. She is immersed in the world of glamor and easy money by her school friend Marina Levkoeva, whose only source of income is a relationship with a married official Igor Dolgachev, with whom she met thanks to a matchmaker to the elite in Moscow.

Alisa Olkhovska put more than one beautiful girl in safe hands, and she was able to go from gold digging to being the wife of a prosperous developer. And now she shares with Marina not only social gatherings, but also a young lover, Kir.

Meanwhile, other women have other worries. And while some spend money on another diamond necklace, others are thinking about how to reach a higher salary. This is the reality for investigator Alyona Shirokova, who finds solutions to pressing problems in sex with her lover-colleague Maxim. However, Alyona will soon get acquainted with the beautiful life closer: when the body of one of the girls is found in the toilet of an elite restaurant, and the investigation of this confusing case will reveal to Alyona unattractive secrets of many residents of Moscow.
