Tsardust (Hardcover)


Scandinavian legend asserts that a daughter of Nicholas and Alexandra escaped the Bolsheviks and fled to Norway, taking with her a generous helping of Faberge Imperial Eggs. While there is little evidence the escape actually occurred, there is no doubt ten or more Faberge Eggs are missing to this day. What if somebody other than a member of the Tsar's family had equal access to the Imperial Eggs and escaped with them...somebody such as Yelena Anderson, the beautiful daughter of Carl Faberge's chief designer and secret lover of a member of the imperial family? What happened to Yelena and, perhaps more importantly, what happened to the Eggs entrusted to her care? The ultimate disposition of these priceless works of art--a mystery that has intrigued the world for years--is the subject matter of Tsardust. The novel is filled with suspense, chases, double-crosses, romantic encounters, exotic locales, and skullduggery. The exciting ending, set in a graveyard in Lausanne, will shock and delight readers.
