Tonight, the White Army advances on the town where the Tsar and his family are being held captive by the Bolsheviks. Nicholas dares to hope for salvation. Instead, the Romanovs are coldly and methodically executed.<br><br><b>Moscow: Present Day.</b> Atlanta lawyer Miles Lord, fluent in Russian and well versed in the country&#8217;s history, is thrilled to be in Moscow on the eve of such a momentous event. After the fall of Communism and a succession of weak governments, the Russian people have voted to bring back the monarchy. The new tsar will be chosen from the distant relatives of Nicholas II by a specially appointed commission, and Miles&#8217; job is to perform a background check on the Tsarist candidate favored by a powerful group of Western businessmen. But research quickly becomes the least of Miles&#8217; concerns when he is nearly killed by gunmen on a city plaza.<br><br>Suddenly Miles is racing across continents, shadowed by nefarious henchmen. At first, his only question is why people are pursuing him. But after a strange conversation with a mysterious Russian, who steers Miles toward the writings of Rasputin, he becomes desperate to know more&#8211;most important, <i>what really happened to the family of Russia&#8217;s last tsar?</i><br><br>His only companion is Akilina Petrov, a Russian circus performer sympathetic to his struggle, and his only guide is a cryptic message from Rasputin that implies that the bloody night of so long ago is not the last chapter in the Romanovs&#8217; story . . . and that someone might even have survived the massacre. The prophecy&#8217;s implications are earth-shattering&#8211;not only for the future of the tsar and mother Russia, but also for Miles himself.<br><br>Steve Berry, national bestselling author of the phenomenal thriller <i>The Amber Room,</i> once again delves into rich historical fact to produce an explosive page-turner. In <i>The Romanov Prophecy,</i> the authentic and the speculative meld into a fascinating and exceptionally suspenseful work of fiction. 72565 2004 The Romanov Prophecy: A Novel total:1855|5:409|4:743|3:546|2:134|1:23| 1855 6946 2483 252 75020 0345460065 9780345460066 1785 239 3.74 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170871301m/75020.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/75020.The_Romanov_Prophecy_A_Novel 4 1 false Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Wed Mar 04 14:13:20 -0800 2009 Wed Mar 04 14:25:01 -0800 2009
