Katerina was left alone with a newborn baby, without any help. The money she set aside ahead of time was running out, and she couldn’t afford even to rent a place. Neither her parents nor the baby’s father needed her. In a way, it was her own fault for what happened. The only thing she could do was ask her grandmother, who lived in a village somewhere deep in Russia and whom she had seen only twice in her life, to take her in. At least for a while.
Only when Katerina arrived with her son and her belongings did she learn that this grandmother was a famous witch in the whole area. What awaited the young woman in the witch’s house—and how her life went on from there—you’ll find out by reading this book.
