The curse of the priests of an ancient Indian tribe—fiction or reality? Writer Irina Tatisheva was convinced it was only a beautiful legend. But then why do Irina’s cousin Laima and her husband mysteriously die the moment they manage to obtain a statuette of Mielcoatlan—the Indian moon goddess? Without hesitation, Irina accepts an invitation from Laima’s acquaintance, Professor Ivanytsky, to accompany him to a congress of specialists in ancient Indian civilizations—maybe it will help shed light on the mysterious death of her relatives. In France, Tatisheva realizes that the Indian curse is still at work: Ivanytsky dies after falling into a well. To avoid the fate of those who have already become victims of the bloodthirsty goddess, Irina must figure out what lies behind these deaths—revenge of an ancient deity that was disturbed… or simply part of a plan of unknown hunters of the Indians’ mythical treasures?
