Description

The only uncertainty in war is uncertainty. 1915-1917: Katarina is a feisty fifteen-year-old Ukrainian girl with wild dreams that conflict with her family's traditional Mennonite ways. When a rebel gang attacks the family farm during her sister, Anna's wedding, Katarina's life falls apart. As the storms of civil war threaten her safe world, Katarina tries to make sense of it all. Everything is changing and no one can be trusted. She has one chance to escape the war. But leaving means giving up everything and every one she holds dear. Staying in Ukraine may be dangerous. Life has never been so uncertain.

1951: Peter stumbles on his adopted mother's diaries from the Russian Revolution. What happened during those early years that prompted Katarina to go back to Ukraine during WW2? What secrets lie behind the Iron Curtain?

Set in Ukraine during the Russian civil war, Katarina's Dark Shadow prequels the courageous human struggle inside a distinct faith during violent political times. This is a continuing saga with an ending that will have you reaching for Book two.
