How does one remember a world that literally no longer exists? How do the moral imperatives to do so correspond to the personal needs that make it possible? Told from the point-of-view of Marta Eisenstein Lane on the occasion of her 80th birthday, Barren Island is the story of a factory island in New York's Jamaica Bay, where the city's dead horses and other large animals were rendered into glue and fertilizer from the mid-19th century until the 1930's.

Крупную добычу вор Жора Гуньков за версту чует, недаром и кликуха у него — Фартовый. Ничего, что добыча эта находится в опломбированном контейнере, под охраной офицеров НКВД и Смерша, ничего, что сам Фартовый чалится на зоне, через которую транзитом проходит секретный груз. Надо «разморозить» зону и в заварухе захватить «сундук». Задумано — сделано, только контейнер достался не вору, а бывшему подполковнику госбезопасности, а ныне штрафнику-рядовому Куприянову. Об этом контейнере знают Сталин и Берия, знает Фартовый, знает майор-смершевец Коробов… Знают и ждут. Ведь сотни первоклассных алмазов бесследно не исчезают…
