Невероятная история о братьях-близнецах, никогда прежде не слыхавших друг о друге. Один из них, в младенчестве подброшенный в табор, стал цыганским бароном; другой рос в детском доме — и теперь он еврей — музыкант с мировым именем; третьего воспитывала родная тётя, и домашнее воспитание принесло свои плоды: он стал авторитетнейшим в СНГ вором и аферистом. Именно он, благодаря своим талантам, обводит вокруг пальца главу мафии и похищает фантастический алмаз «Спаситель России». Стоимость найденного в Сибири драгоценного камня такова, что вся страна сможет 3 года отдыхать на Канарских островах. Его размерами потрясено мировое сообщество. Английская королева рыдает, закрывшись в спальне. Южно-африканские шахтёры поклялись не выходить на поверхность, пока не отыщут более крупный самородок... А в России сенсация следует за сенсацией! Находка века породила ограбление века! Мир, затаив дыхание, следит за стремительной сменой событий...
