Romania, 1902, a time of extreme war, poverty, and evil brewing amongst undeserving civilians, soon traveling all across Europe. A chartreuse home sits on a hill in Bistrita, a lonesome poor town, except for the brutal, vial, unexplainable enforcers known as The Lashing Leviders, or also known as, The Cold Ones, wreaking havoc and doing unspeakable things to children and adults.
The chartreuse home is filled with a house mother, and 4 girls who are as innocent and enticing as they look. When an art festival rolls into town for only a couple hours, one of the girls, Mabyn Vasile runs into herself, literally, an 8 year old version of herself. After finding out that she messed something up from the past that will cause her and her house family to die within the week from the Leviders, she must go back into another dimension to fix the damage, no matter what the cost is.
Saving the life of the infamous rookie pirate, Captain Ruben Kirk, catapults Jessica Red into a sea of magic, jewel heists, and world-saving adventure.
