Illusion of fear / Ілюзія страху

Story of a successful businessman, who has to protect his business in difficult conditions. He gets entrapped into the net of law enforcement structures (illegal arrest, physical tortures, demands to "share", incarceration, forced signature of blank mandates etc.). After arrest the protagonist starts to notice weird things: some of his interlocutors appear to be not real persons, but phantoms, created by his consciousness. Fantomness, dematerialization of things that are obvious for common sence brings the author to the next stage of thinking - that the illusion of fear is also fruit of our imagination.
