None. NIL   rustyoldboat | May 28, 2011 |  Good fast moving fiction with a deal of historical characters and detail (  ) richardgarside | Mar 5, 2011 | More Follett, this one was a little more low-key. I learned the difference between a coachman and a footman. Every time I read about the villian, I pictured my old Don in a top hat and frock coat, with a round black bomb shouting "Down with the Czar!" I'll read more of his, but I may start at the most recent work, and work backwards. (  ) Neilsantos | Oct 8, 2010 | Excellent Book, fast moving, good historical detail ( ) sds6565 | Aug 30, 2009 | This book was a good mix of historical fiction and thriller set in the months leading up to World War I. Though the characters at times seemed two-dimensional, the relationships and events made them come alive now and again.

|
His name was Feliks. He came to London to commit a murder that would change history. A master manipulator, ha had many weapons at his command, but against him were ranged the whole of the English police, a brilliant and powerful lord, and the young Winston Churchill himself. These odds would have stopped any man in the world-except the man from St. Petersburg...

Just before World War I, two men--one a noble Russian emissary, the other a denizen of Europe's underground--set in motion a concatenation of world-shaking, ultimately fatal events.
