Based on real events, the novel follows the fate of Irena Kalaschová, whose story stands for those of the thousands of people taken from the territory of what was then Czechoslovakia to labour camps in the Soviet Union. It portrays her and many other women held in the camps of the Kolyma region in the Soviet Far East after the war. It is a story of hopelessness, but also of friendship and love, one that really happened yet had to be kept silent for decades.
