1860. On a country road, the count Chernyshev’s carriage accidentally knocks down a strange young woman dressed immodestly. The stranger is named Nadezhda, and she looks, as if two drops of water, like the count’s beloved wife, Lydia, who disappeared a year ago. The girl doesn’t remember how she ended up on the road, but she clearly knows that she lived in the 21st century. Trying not to show her panic, Nadia keeps from everyone that she is from the future and pretends to be a young lady of the 19th century. Soon she realizes she ended up in the past for a reason: strange, incomprehensible events begin to occur in the count’s house, and some of the estate residents are not as simple as they seem at first glance… Every book in the series “Sorcerers” is a self-contained story; it’s possible to read the books in different order.
