The Volkhov Compact: An Alternate History of Rus, A Novel
Russia was never supposed to exist. Now the republic that replaced it may be heading for war.
More than two centuries after Novgorod defeated Muscovy, the Commonwealth of the Rus Lands is one of Europe's great powers.
Then a diplomat is murdered.
His death exposes stolen state secrets, hidden payments, collapsing credit, foreign pressure and whispers of a conspiracy stretching from Stockholm to Moscow.
As investigator Nikolai Velyaminov follows the trail, Marfa Boretskaya-heir to the ruling family-must protect a state whose greatest strengths may also be its greatest weaknesses.
The Volkhov Compact is an epic alternate-history thriller of espionage, murder, diplomacy and political intrigue in a Europe where Novgorod, not Moscow, became the dominant power of Rus.
