Avo Kulli neljanda romaani peategelased töötavad ühe maakonnalehe toimetuses 1990. aastatel. See oli segane, ent tohutult dünaamiline aeg, mil oma tööd tõelise ja täieliku sõnavabaduse tingimustes alles õppival Eesti ajakirjandusel oli kajastamismaterjali tavaliselt enam kui küll, oskusi seda teha aga mõnevõrra vähem. Selle katse ja eksituse meetodil õppimise kõrval arenesid aga tihti ajastule sobiliku tormilisusega ka inimeste omavahelised suhted.
