After an accident, Ulyana discovers that she’s connected to a mysterious world—unpredictable and frightening. It won’t leave her alone, sometimes dragging her toward itself and sometimes intruding into her familiar life. Asking for help is useless: Ulyana is only 16, she is a child with a disability, and the people around her believe she’s only trying to get attention. Ulyana is forced to cope with trials that would drive even an older, more experienced person mad. But just when she begins to manage, she encounters a black hound. According to legend, if a black hound chooses someone, it won’t stop at anything until the victim is destroyed.
