A relentless spy who shadows an Elvis impersonator in 1950s Kyiv…
A destitute Olympic swimmer who marries an abusive man for his pool…
A fellow cosmonaut paying tribute to a haunted, crazy Yuri Gagarin…
A midwife who recalls another midwife long ago in Bethlehem…
A young actor thrown into a Siberian gulag and determined to act alive…
An artist who keeps painting the same healing picture to save his sick friends...
A cowboy whose grandfather rode a magical horse in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show...
A surly medical examiner who examines the corpse of the mysterious writer, Nikolai Gogol…
Or maybe the willing servants of the Dark One himself?

Or maybe not...

But they will all experience a sense of wonder. And so will you.
