Sitara lost everything when the Mongols invaded Tus. The kind mistress who treated her like a daughter, the books she had come to love, her hopes for the future--all burned to ash and pierced by swords and arrows. Now she stands on the strange and distant steppe where, after working her way into the Mongol court, she bitterly accepts a life of comfort while biding her time until the moment for vengeance arrives. With Genghis Khan dead and a Grand Kurultai called to decide on the next emperor, it seems the circumstances are ripe for her revenge!
