Más información sobre el libro

In July 1918, as the White Army approaches Ekaterinburg, hope flickers for Nicholas II and his family held captive by the Bolsheviks. However, their fate is sealed with a cold execution. Fast forward to present-day Moscow, where Atlanta lawyer Miles Lord, fluent in Russian and knowledgeable about its history, is in the city for a significant event: the selection of a new tsar from Nicholas II's distant relatives, a decision influenced by powerful Western businessmen. Miles's task is to conduct a background check on the favored candidate, but his mission takes a dangerous turn when gunmen target him in a city plaza. As he races across continents, pursued by sinister forces, Miles's initial focus on survival shifts after an encounter with a mysterious Russian. This conversation leads him to explore Rasputin's writings, igniting his curiosity about the fate of the last tsar's family. Accompanied by Akilina Petrov, a sympathetic Russian circus performer, Miles deciphers a cryptic message from Rasputin, suggesting that the tragic night of the Romanovs may not be the end of their story—and that one of them might have survived. The implications of this revelation could change the future of Russia and Miles's own life.
