One man living a double life in the treacherous world of revolutionary Russia. One chance to save those he loves. Set in a world of stark contrasts, from glittering ballrooms to the cruel cells of the House of Preliminary Detention, from the grandeur of the British Embassy to the underground presses of the young revolutionaries, TO KILL A TSAR is both a gripping thriller and a passionate love story. Andrew Williams is already being described by critics as the next Robert Harris.
