Ken Follett never fails to disappoint the reader with his marvelously suspenseful writing filled with historic details. This book is centered around Feliks, a Russian anarchist, who is determined to murder Prince Orlov to prevent Russia from entering into a war. This page turner of a story is intricately woven with complications of lost love, arranged marriages, and well-kept secrets. There are frank discussions between female characters about women's rights, sex education and the differences between upper and lower classes. Written over 35 years ago, this book is still a great read!
