Deep in an Estonian forest, two women, one young, one old, are
hiding. Zara is a prostitute and a murderer, on the run from brutal
captors - men who know how to punish a woman. Aliide offers refuge
but not safety: she has her own criminal secrets - traitorous
crimes of passion and revenge committed long ago, during the
country's brutal Soviet years. Both women have survived lives of
abuse. But this time their survival depends on revealing the one
thing history has taught them to keep safely hidden: the truth. A
haunting, intimate and gripping story of suspicion, betrayal and
retribution against a backdrop of Soviet oppression and European
war.
