St. Petersburg-born Mira Terada (before marriage Oksana Vovk) was detained in Finland in 2018 on charges of preliminary conspiracy in money laundering, after which she was extradited to America. There, the Russian woman was sentenced to 46 months in prison. The book is based on diary entries that Mira kept during her imprisonment, recording the smallest details that made up the inhuman conditions of her existence in the cell. Desperate attempts to prove her innocence, repeated appeals for help to people from different countries, terrible in its absurdity habituation to prison existence, unexpected meetings and acquaintances in a foreign country on a distant continent - all this makes up the fabric of Terad's prison biography, which for the first time appears before the Russian reader. The author's account of life in prison is not accidentally intertwined with the story of her marriage, which is full of suffering and oppression. Both parts of her life unexpectedly intersected in an American prison. The long endless days in a prison cell, the unbearable wait for release, seeming every day more and more unattainable .... This incredibly suspenseful account of a long, hard-won journey to freedom reveals the truth about prison life and answers the ultimate question - how to survive in prison and keep faith in life.
