March, 1917
Petrograd is on the eve of revolution. For Countess Sophia Orlova, the city of her childhood - the only home she has ever known - has become her deadly enemy. The mob are ready to get rid of anyone connected to the old regime, including Sophia.
When rebels threaten to shoot Sophia and her husband, they are saved by Nikolai, a fervent supporter of the revolution. Determined to help Nikolai's cause, Sophia sets up a hospital wing in the house, nursing injured victims by his side.
Her kindness has captured Nikolai's heart, but their burgeoning romance is forbidden. With battle lines drawn between the new and the old, both their lives are in danger...
Will their love be strong enough to overcome the horrors of war?
From the bestselling author of Sisters of War comes a heart-wrenching novel of lovers trapped on the opposite sides of a terrifying political conflict, loss, and sacrifice.
