The Crow in the Harem. Book 1

In the heart of the palace lives one whose life is wrapped in mystery and darkness. She is called Mistress Crow. Some whisper that she is an immortal sorceress, others — that she is a demoness capable of casting a... curse, summoning a spirit, or finding any lost thing. She lives in seclusion, yielding to no one, and even the emperor has never crossed the threshold of her chambers.
 
The young emperor Xia Gaojun, whose reign is overshadowed by the shadow of conspiracies and betrayals, one day comes to her with a request to find the owner of a jade earring found in the labyrinths of the women's quarters of the palace. But behind this task lie secrets capable of shaking the very foundations of power.
 
Their meeting is a collision of two lonely souls trapped in the cage of palace rules. Together, they begin an investigation that could lead them into darkness and expose what must always remain hidden from prying eyes…
The beginning of an enchanting tale about magic and secrets hidden in the depths of the imperial palace!
