Description
A tale of two mothers, each desperate to protect her child. But only one of them can succeed. And only one of them knows why. In this slavic-folklore inspired fantasy, Gabriela Houston explores the lengths a mother will go to safeguard her child. The story revolves around Vedma Kada, who has been giving thanks to the bone roots for 40 years, hoping they will keep her daughter Secha safe from harm. Meanwhile, Sladyana is on a quest to uncover the truth about her missing daughter Luba, snatched by the Fox thief fifteen years ago. As the paths of these two mothers converge, secrets begin to unravel and the true nature of their children's fates is revealed.
