The White Lady

July, 2014, Donbass. A student named Zhanna returns to her native mining town from Kharkiv to care for her dying mother. At the same time, their young neighbor known as Valet and an elderly intelligence officer by the surname Korol arrive from Moscow - both on the orders of the Russian military command. Something terrible and irreparable is about to happen. But this small town is not new to becoming the setting for a great story. For example, all its residents have known for years but remain silent about the monstrous events of 70 years ago.

Writer Sergey Lebedev ("The Limit of Oblivion", "Goose Fritz", "Debutant") is one of the most translated contemporary Russian-speaking prose writers in Europe. The novel "The White Lady" has already been translated into English and Polish, with translations into German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Norwegian, and other languages in preparation.
