A well researched book about Russia in the early 20th century, and the ousting of the Romanov family rulers. The book "timeshifts" from 1917/1918 to 1970 to 2000 relatively seamlessly, following a New York divorcee's interaction with a group of Russian emigrants, and the search for a relic with great associated power. Trust no one. ( ) Have you heard the statement, "Making your point, the hard way". That is just one thought about this series. I did not find it a suspenseful Thriller as others describe, maybe my definition of "suspenseful" has a higher standard. The original plot is good but then it tries to .....

For fans of Steve Berry, Dan Brown, Robert Harris and Kate Mosse's historically accurate thrillers, a riveting page-turner questions if the Romanov dynasty really ended, suggesting the 'one designated by blood' may still be alive. Ipatiev House, Ekaterinburg Siberia, July 1918: On the eve of his execution, in a desperate attempt to save the Romanov Dynasty, Tsar Nicholas II signs in secret his last Ukase, an irrevocable royal edict, bestowing untold riches and power on his legitimate heir, 'the one designated by blood'. New York City, 1970: Christina Gartner, a young socialite divorcee befriends her new neighbor, Mme. Antonova, an elderly White Russian migr who escaped the Russian Revolution with her two children. The charming Mme. A. captivates Christina with stories of her escape, but are they the truth? The friendship catapults Christina into a cat and mouse game with a ruthless aging Bolshevik on the hunt for the Tsar's long lost and explosive Ukase so he can take control of the Russian government and the country's mining riches. It's up to Christina and a NYC cop to find the Ukase and the secrets of the Blood Stiller, before the sinister migr conspiracy in contemporary New York does.
