The detective novel All is Calm in Baghdad is another story in the book and film series The Inspector and Coffee or The Kyiv Detective in Retro Style. This work, like the previous ones, takes place in Kyiv in the 70s of the last twentieth century. The protagonists of the series - Captain Oleksa Sirota, a criminal investigation inspector of the Kyiv police, and his teacher and boss, Lieutenant Colonel Ivan Borisovich, nicknamed the Old Man - are faced with mysterious and brutal murders that even veterans of criminal investigation could not recall. And one more strange circumstance: The KGB, which usually closely monitored all police investigations of high-profile criminal cases, this time demonstratively withdrew itself. Immediately after the case was concluded, even references to it in police reports were strictly classified. Investigative materials were partially destroyed, and the rest were taken to Moscow, where they disappeared into the bottomless archives of the Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs. Thus, the authors of the novel, well-known Ukrainian writers Valeriy and Natalia Lapikur, had to literally recreate the complex picture of those distant events bit by bit.
