Description

Artemisia se chce stát Šedou sestrou, členkou řádu, který se stará o klidný přechod duší zemřelých na onen svět. S mrtvými tráví čas raději než s živými, kteří si za jejími zády šuškají o jejích zjizvených rukou a pohnuté minulosti. Když klášter přepadnou vojáci, rozhodne se Artemisia vyvolat na jeho ochranu prastarého ducha spjatého se svatou relikvií, která je zde uložena. Je to však přízrak, nevyzpytatelná bytost, která ji může posednout, jakmile přestane být ostražitá. Na pokraji svých sil se brzy ocitá na prahu smrti. Pokud chce zůstat mezi živými, potřebuje pomoc vespertiny – kněžky znalé v umění ovládat relikvie. Kde ji však najít, netuší. Proto se obrátí s prosbou o pomoc na toho nejpovolanějšího – přízrak samotný. Pouto mezi nimi roste a prastaré zlo začne vyplouvat na povrch. Dokáže mu Artemisia čelit? Zradí všechno, čemu dosud věřila, nebo to bude přízrak, kdo zradí ji? Temná fantasy od autorky bestselleru Kouzla rodu Thornů.
