Description
The Russo-Turkish war is at a critical juncture, and Erast Fandorin's efforts to forget his sorrows are thwarted when he comes to the aid of Varvara Suvorova. A 'progressive' Russian woman, she is trying to reach the Russian headquarters to join her fiancé, but danger looms on the horizon. Rumours of a Turkish spy hiding within their own camp threaten to disrupt the war effort. Fandorin must use his dormant powers of detection to unmask the traitor, help the Russians to victory, and smooth the path of young love. With the fate of the war hanging in the balance, Fandorin's skills are put to the test in this gripping tale of espionage and adventure. As the war rages on, Fandorin's personal struggles are set against the backdrop of international intrigue and deception. This is a story of loyalty, duty, and the human cost of war.
