A Hundred Suns in a Drop of Light

The first half of the 19th century. Five daughters of a bankrupt landowner languish in his estate in rural seclusion. And then… the calm flow of life is disrupted: to the village where their aunt lives comes a banished-from-duelling capital dandy, Serge Sobolinsky, a charmer and rake, and along with him arrives a millionaire, Count Lanin, the owner of a huge fortune. Together with the count, evil itself appears in the district—the Indian diamond “One Hundred Suns in a Drop of Light,” behind which, from the depths of centuries, stretches a bloody trail. The sisters are drawn into a dramatic story full of unexpected plot turns and an unpredictable ending…

The book was also published under the title “The Abyss Calls to the Abyss.”
