As the River Flows

On the darkest and longest night of the year, on the winter solstice, a wounded stranger bursts into the ancient tavern "The Swan" on the banks of the Thames, carrying a dead girl in his arms. However, a few hours... later, the girl turns out to be alive.
 
What is this – a miracle? Magic? Or can a scientific explanation be found? And most importantly – who is she? The missing daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Vaughan from two years ago? Or maybe the granddaughter of farmer Robert Armstrong, whose existence he only learned about the day before and never got to see?
 
After all, "The Swan" is not just the oldest tavern in the district; for a long time, people have come here to listen to and tell stories – contemporary anecdotes, or ancient traditions and legends, or magical fairy tales. So the story of the mysterious girl must weave into the fabric that has been spun by experienced storytellers for many centuries...
