Summary
Cold cities create cold people. Around them, it becomes dangerously easy to mistake love for pain, cruelty for strength, and fear for devotion.
Alex is a college student left homeless after her parents reject her for being a lesbian. Drawn into the orbit of a successful older woman, she becomes willing to endure almost anything rather than fail the impossible test of being loved. If surviving means becoming someone just like her, so be it.
Alex believes it's the only way to build a future.
But she still has one sharp tongued, fiercely loyal friend who sees what's happening and may be the only person capable of pulling her back before she disappears completely.
A story of Siberian nights, snowstorms, escapes from the Russian Far North, cigarette smoke, and love slowly becoming indistinguishable from destruction.
A prequel to Order of the Holy Nothing.

Summary
2015. Alexandra “Alex” Alova returns to Krasnoyarsk after twelve years in Moscow. She’s back to launch a major regional online outlet called The Line. At least, that’s the official story. Alex lies as easily as she breathes — and she’s hiding the real reason she came home.
Katerina Efremova has built a successful life as the general manager of a car dealership. The last person she wants to see is Alex — her former best friend and the source of some of the darkest chapters of her life. But something criminal is unfolding inside the dealership, pulling her into danger.
Vera Reygel is a talented journalist and an awkward person outside the newsroom. She dreams of finding a strong woman who could be both a lover and a safe haven. Some wishes, however, are better left unfulfilled.
Evgenia “Zheka” Bashirova is broke, reckless, and famously promiscuous. Yet the only woman she wants is Vera, who sees her as nothing more than a friend.
And then there is Polina Ageeva — a mysterious woman whose presence will bind all four of them together.
