In the shadow of the throne. Zubakin V.A.

Roman Vasily Zubakin - about love. His main characters are Grand Duke Mikhail Alexandrovich Romanov and the British king Edward Eight. On the thrones of their powers, they did not stay long, but everyone went down in history by the fact that for the sake of love he went against his monarchical dynasty, against traditions and prejudices. At the same time, the author makes an attempt to add history in his own way.

The plot is rapidly carrying the heroes of the book from the Windsor Castle - to the taiga monastery, from the azure shore to the battlefields, from Gatchina to Paris, from the Karakum desert - to the Alps. The special services of many countries follow the trail of the heroes, but at all the turns of the fate of the heroes of the book, love and honor, devotion and nobility are saved.
