The long-awaited breakthrough novel about women, faith and evil Bílá Voda. This is the poetic name of a desolate village hidden in the shadow of the border mountains, where crowds of pilgrims once came to beg for help from the miraculous statue of the Virgin Mary. It is here, several centuries later, that Lena Lagnerová arrives here to hide from her past, which brought her to the brink of suicide. Instead of a monastery with a large religious community, however, he finds only a few religious sisters, led by the peculiar nun Evarista. She came to Bílá Vody on the last night of September in 1950, when the communist regime, personified by the demonic Father Plojhar, dragged all the religious sisters to collection monasteries as part of Action Ř. Young Evarista was then given a choice: return to civilian life, or share their future fate with others. She did not hesitate for a moment. Like all nuns, she was put to forced labor and subjected to humiliation in a communist prison and torture to give up her faith in God. In vain. However, Lena discovers that this is just the beginning of Evarista's dramatic story, and she soon realizes that the demons surrounding the past of the Whitewater nuns have not disappeared, and are also part of her own destiny.
