It is the dead of winter in the year 1237 A.D. when nineteen-year-old Nika Ingarevich and her sixteen-year-old sister, Petra enter a coach bound for the city of Vladimir and sanctuary with an aunt. A few kilometers away, Batu Khaan of the Golden Horde, his Orlock Subotei Ba’atur and a Mongol army of one hundred twenty thousand men prepare to launch an assault on the city of Riazan and Prince Yuri Ingarevich and his wife, the Duchess Anna. In the days to come, the journey for Nika and Petra will find them prisoners of intrigue, deception and betrayal; and for the men of the Golden Horde and their Polotvsi allies, aggressors in a brutal and merciless campaign for the lands and wealth of the Rus (Russia) and; its splintered northern principalities.
