My first book on Rasputin or his family despite having read many many books on the Romanovs. Truly focused on the sexual appetites of not only Rasputin, but many of his devout followers. I would have liked to have heard more about his healing abilities or powers of prediction and his interference in the monarchy's politics since that's what they say brought down the Romanov dynasty. Interesting explanation of why Rasputin's body was found "drowned" in the river after he was certainly dead from a gunshot to the forehead.
