Description

In the aftermath of war, a city lies trapped, its people struggling to survive. For two women, survival is a daily struggle, with the line between right and wrong becoming increasingly blurred. As they search for answers and revenge, they must navigate a treacherous landscape where trust is a luxury they can ill afford. Anna and Ingrid are among the millions of people cut off from the outside world, relying on fragile lifelines to stay alive. With the Russian state police watching their every move, they must be careful to trade the right things - food, medicine, heirlooms, secrets - to stay one step ahead. But for them, the greatest prize is a lost child, a symbol of hope in a city torn apart by conflict. Kate Furnivall's gripping tale of survival and revenge is a powerful exploration of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable hardship.
