About this ebook
1913 Crimea. Oksana Mangupli is but thirteen when she enters the legendary cavern of blue light and answers an ancient calling from a forgotten goddess.
An empire will fall before she learns what it costs to answer.
From the polar north to Moscow to the Black Sea, she will search for Her truth.
All the while she is haunted by Zoran Murometz—a man of terrifying power who will destroy everything she loves to take the truth she carries. And the man she believes fate has chosen for her will become the reason she must question everything.
Because the goddess didn't give Oksana just a mission.
She gave her a question.
What is love?
The answer will cost everything.
