“He's Russian. That explains a lot.”
Douglas is a foreign entrepreneur, who ventures to Russia in 1885 with dreams of selling a new, experimental steam-driven timber harvester in the wilds of Siberia. Jane is his assistant. On her travels, she meets two men who would change her life forever: a handsome young cadet Andrej Tolstoy with whom she shares a fondness for opera, and the powerful General Radlov who is entranced by her beauty and wants to marry her.
A grand, sweeping romance set against the vast Siberian landscape. It feels like a classic, old-world epic, full of passionate longing, dramatic choices, and the bittersweet ache of what might have been. A truly transportive experience.
