Signe finds herself sitting on a bed at a Russian hospital in Vladivostok with no clue as to how she got there. She has an Italian passaport, but she doesn’t speak Italian; she has hundreds of thousands of Russian rubles, but she doesn’t know how they ended up in her bag; she has a phone, but all its memory has been erased—except for an app note with an address in Saint Petersburg. As if that wasn’t enough, all she can remember is being witness to a murder. Having no one she can trust, she decides to pretend everything is alright and heads to Saint Petersburg on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Naturally, she wants to know who she is; she’s wants answers. However, during her journey she will meet all kinds of extraordinary people who will show her who she really is.From the author of "The White Shoes", "Signe" was written for those who see travel as an opportunity to escape the mundane, to see the world with different eyes, to be inspired by the path taken by those who don’t fear dreams, who don’t fear adventure, who don’t fear trying something new.
