From the jacket:
“From one of Canada’s finest historical novelists, an intricately woven story of revenge, deception, love and redemption set against the turbulent social upheavals of 1860s Russia…the historical sweep of Gone with the Wind, with a Russian twist, as serfs abandon the great landowners’ estates after they are emancipated by the Tsar in 1861 and the old order crumbles.”
