Fans of The Great and The Last Tsars will love this decadent look at one of the most intriguing monarchs in history...

Long before Catherine was great, Elizabeth was destined to rule the Romanov empire...

The last true Romanov, Elizabeth has once again been denied the throne of Russia. Grieving and isolated, she struggles to protect the few loved ones she has left. But when Empress Anna’s health begins to fail, Elisabeth’s very existence becomes a threat to Anna’s plans to place her chosen heir, the infant Ivan, on the throne.

Knowing only one of them will survive, Elizabeth enters into a dangerous alliance with Anna’s former lover in the hopes of not only returning the crown to its rightful line, but also rescuing her nearly bankrupt nation from the hands of an enemy king determined to bring the country under his rule.

Desperate and willing to sacrifice anything - and anyone - to her gambit, Elizabeth must make her final choice between the destiny that was promised to her and the one man she might truly love.
