After escaping from the Tower of the Swallow, Ciri finds herself lost in a distant world. Separated from Geralt and her destiny in a place where time does not seem to exist, she can see no way back. But this is Ciri, the child of prophecy, and she will not be defeated. She must find a way to return home - and conquer her worst nightmare. The Lady of the Lake is the fifth in Andrzej Sapkowski's epic Witcher saga, following The Tower of the Swallow.
