A river through history
A child looking for home. A man who has lost his.
Anastasia’s ordinary world is anchored to her father’s hospital room. The other waits beyond the garden—a moving river that carries her into danger, loss and the long memory of Georgia.
Iakobi is hunted, wounded and trying to protect the family taken from him. Anastasia needs him to survive the past. He needs her for reasons neither of them yet understands.
Across kingdoms, monasteries, invasions and moments history did not fully record, King Tamar’s guidance and a mystery within the Finn family draw both travelers toward the same question: what do we owe the people whose stories reached us?
