1210 ... The year of the decisive battle of the indigenous peoples of the Baltic Sea with the German Order of the Sword for Riga. The massacre with the German sword-bearers lured into a trap was ruthless and bloody, and the booty was rich. The elder of coastal pirates Hugo, tearing off a jeweled cross from the chest of a noble traveler, could not even imagine what role an expensive trinket could play in the future fate of Livonia. To strengthen the alliance of the Livs against the conquering Crusaders, who demand not only taxes, but also the abandonment of their gods, the elder must marry the beautiful Leia, the sister of the leader of the Livs. But the bride is already waiting for Hugo at home, and the best archer and inventor Ivo among the Livs is in love with Leia. At the same time, intrigues are woven among the Germans around the founder of Riga, Bishop Albert ... The author surprisingly managed to combine the fabric of a story captivating from the first pages, colored with legends, ancient customs, rituals, conspiracies and serious passions of heroes, with the deepest artistic penetration into real historical events. Based on the facts collected bit by bit, the unique study of these events makes the novel interesting not only for history buffs, but also for professionals.
