Evil people kidnapped the girl and took her to captivity. She escaped, but what is freedom when you are hunted by wise men, witches and overseas diplomats weaving intrigues against Mother Rus'? This is not a historical novel in the classical sense. I would describe it as a fairy tale with elements of a detective story, a kind of mixture of the past, the present, the legendary and the never-existent. There is everything here: love for a woman, for one’s land, intrigue, battles, the triumph of evil and the heavy hand of good. Not everything that doesn’t go together doesn’t go together, so don’t rush to pass by, maybe this novel is what you’ve been looking for all your life.
