And now it must become native to her, because by right of origin and blood, she must take the place of her deceased mother - the leader of a powerful noble clan, trading in contraband from neighboring parallel realities.

And she is forced to flee to another parallel reality, where neither the Great French Revolution nor the American War of Independence happened, where violence and cruelty reign, and where she will have to engage in a merciless battle with murderers and conspirators...
