Then she meets Oz, a charismatic and passionate student at the university where Natasha teaches. As their bond deepens, stories from Natasha's research come to life - tales of forbidden love and intrigue in the court of the Tsar.

As suspicions grow around her, and friends and colleagues back away, Natasha stands to lose the life she has fought to build.
