Всъщност единствената посока е навътре към преживяванията на полковник Христо Лазаров от военното разузнаване. Читателят разбира, че името е измислено, за да скрие една конкретна личност. Този жив все още човек обаче е литературно обременен с преживяванията и на други като него. Така той става обобщаващ образ.
