YA
Dissipated parties and wild excess lose their charm for Nastasya after four-hundred-odd years, so she takes up an offer to try a simple and disciplined life among a small group of other immortals. Forced to confront her own history, Nastasya slowly begins to acknowledge her heritage and imagine a new kind of future. Dark romance and mystery enliven this tale of supernatural self-discovery.
