In interviews preceding the publication of the book, Akunin stated that he only had one more, final novel to write about Fandorin. On October 8, 2017, Akunin announced that he had finished working on the series of works about Erast Fandorin. He wrote about this on his Facebook page.
"I hereby notify all interested parties that on this 8th day of the tenth month of the 29th year of the Heisei era, I have completed the last book of the series 'Adventures of Erast Fandorin'... The novel is scheduled for release on February 8, 2018, the 20th anniversary of the publication of the first Fandorin book, the novel 'Azazel'."
On January 1, 2018, one month before the book's release, Boris Akunin published the first chapter of the novel as a New Year's gift to readers on his Facebook page. From this chapter, it becomes known what happened to Fandorin after the events described in "Black City".

Journalist Denis Korsakov reports that discussions about the creation of this book had been going on for a long time, "since the end of the last century. Lev Danilkin, now the laureate of the 'Big Book,' and then a young and enthusiastic literary critic, author of one of the first reviews of Akunin's texts, mentioned that the novel would be a remake of 'The Adjutant His Excellency.' Around the same time, the original title emerged - 'Everything's Fine'".[2]
