Tsarina's Jewels - Paperback

by Jerena Tobiasen (Author)

It's 1918. Simon Temple has returned to England with his new wife, Mary-the once Grand Duchess Maria Nikolaevna. Having only narrowly escaped the grim fate of the Romanov family, together they seek to put Mary's past behind them and settle into a comfortable, uneventful life.

Unfortunately, tranquility proves elusive. Ivan Vasiliev, who hounded them throughout Russia, is now trying to terrorize them from afar. He has been posted to Türkiye to oversee the Russian interest in the Turkish rebel forces; however, his personal goals are far grander. He is after the crown jewels of the last Russian dynasty, and he believes Simon-and his new Russian bride-have them.

Matters are further complicated when Simon's brother Richard, a scoundrel and a spendthrift, disappears along with top secret documents from the British War Office, together with a significant portion of Mary's inheritance.

Secret Intelligence. Turkish Revolution. Missing treasures. Tsarina's Jewels is a fast-paced, historical drama that leads the reader through power struggles, greed, and sinister exposé. Full of action and suspense. And just a little romance.
