The Countess of the Revolution
(eBook)
An utterly heart-wrenching historical novel of love, loss and sacrifice set against the backdrop of the Russian Revolution, from the author of Sisters of War. Countess Sophia Orlova has it all. With a large fortune, a beautiful palatial home in Petrograd and a husband who loves her, her future is bright. But in March 1917, everything changes, as Sophia watches the revolutionary hordes take over her city and her home. When the revolutionaries threaten to shoot Sophia and her husband Dmitry, they are saved by a young man - Nikolai, Dmitry's brother, a fervent supporter of the Bolshevik party, estranged from his family because of his political beliefs. As Russia descends into the chaos of revolution, Sophia and Nikolai grow close.
