The story of a young woman, Dara, whose path to motherhood begins in January 2022. Unrest breaks out in the country, her fiancé suddenly disappears, and her brother goes to the protest square in Aktau. Dara faces a series of life's difficulties: the doctor predicts an unfavorable outcome of the pregnancy, she is evicted from her rented apartment in Almaty, and as if this were not enough, the fiancé's mother tries to humiliate her with every word she says. The only thing that supports Dara is the memories of her native Caspian Sea. In the noise of the sea, she hears the voice of her dead mother, singing her a lullaby. This is a book about love and deceived hopes, courage and cowardice, friendship and betrayal; about the tragic days of bloody January that shook the country.
