The Ghostly Empire

The first part of the duology «dark magic of the empire» by Rina Kharos!  
 
The struggle between light and darkness in the setting of the Russian Empire!  
Their love was all-consuming, destroying all living things, yet so beautiful.

No one can... ever escape punishment for their sins. Even if committed for the sake of duty. Even if committed for the sake of love.
Grigory Azarov, whose word even demons obey, falls into the service of the emperor and his advisor, Andrey Vilskiy. His sharp mind and ability to command dark forces will help confront the enemies of the empire.
Aleksandra Vilska, whose inner light reaches even the most lost souls, tries to help her father survive the abyss of court intrigues. Her faith in goodness and compassion will save those who cannot be saved.
Azarov and Vilska, creations of darkness and light, will correct what was wrought by a renegade many centuries ago. Or plunge the whole world into utter chaos.
The choice is always so difficult…
