Über dieses E-Book
'Sumptuous, sexy and haunting. I adored this novel' SANTA MONTEFIORE.
Starving men and women stalk the streets of St. Petersburg. Revolution is brewing. Yet in the Imperial court of Nicholas II and the lavish palaces of the aristocracy, there is unimaginable luxury and extravagance.
Into this world of stifling splendour come two sisters. Princesses Anastasia and Militza from Montenegro are famed for their wild beauty and mystical powers. They befriend the isolated Tsarina Alexandra and use their psychic gifts to help in her increasingly desperate quest to produce a male heir. In one doomed last throw of the dice, the princesses introduce Rasputin to the Russian court. Forgotten by history, these extraordinary sisters played a frustrating role in the fate of the Romanov family – a true story of love, lust, power and betrayal.
'I couldn't put it down' CLAUDIA WINKLEMAN.
'Brilliant' CANDACE BUSHNELL.
'A rip-roaring read' DAISY GOODWIN.
'Sumptuous... Intrigue and black magic in the time of Rasputin' iNewspaper.
'Glamour, scandal and Russian princesses... A rollicking read' Good Housekeeping.
