"The year is 1916, and the First World War is tearing the European continent to shreds. It is an apocalyptic war, with the fate of millions of people in the balance. But in the Russian city of Petrograd, all that seems a world away. Especially to British intelligence officer Cleary. He drinks and parties with the rich and powerful; he flirts and cavorts with workers and countrymen--his life is all late, drunken nights, bleary-eyed mornings, and the occasional report back to London. However, there are dark clouds on the horizon for Cleary. Word is that the Tsarina's most trusted advisor is counseling the tsar to make a separate peace with Germany. If Russia pulls out of the war, the French and English will be overwhelmed. It would be a disaster, and Cleary, to his horror, is tasked with ending the influence of that advisor. A religious zealot with strange heretical views and enormous power: Grigori Rasputin. And so the stage is set for one of the most infamous and strangest assassinations of all time."-- Back cover
