Rizka the Gypsy girl has a hand in everything that happens in Greater Dunitsa-including runaway lovers, floods, magical caves, and a ghost in the town hall. General Hatvan wants to court-martial her, young Sofiya wants to be just like her, and her greatest enemy-Chief Councilor Sharpnack-wants to run her out of Greater Dunitsa. Has the smart and sassy Rizka finally met her match?
