Women's Fiction Historical
A haunting, epic novel about betrayal, revenge, and
redemption that follows three generations of Russian women,
from the 1917 revolution to the last days of the Soviet
Union, and the enduring love story at the center.
In a faraway kingdom, in a long-ago land...
...a young girl lived happily in Moscow with her family: a
sister, a father, and an eccentric mother who liked to tell
fairy tales and collect porcelain dolls.
One summer night, everything changed, and all that
remained of that family were the girl and her mother.
Now, a decade later and studying at Oxford
University, Rosie has an English name, a loving
fiancé, and a promising future, but all she
wants is to understand--and bury--the past. After her mother
dies, Rosie returns to Russia, armed with little more than
her mother’s strange folklore--and a single key.
What she uncovers is a devastating family
history that spans the 1917 Revolution, the siege of
Leningrad, Stalin’s purges, and beyond.
At the heart of this saga stands a young noblewoman,
Tonya, as pretty as a porcelain doll, whose
actions—and love for an idealistic man—will set
off a sweeping story that reverberates across the
century....
