A fascinating historical novel, built on the original plot of the destinies of three European states - Poland, Prussia and Russia. The action takes place in Poland, enslaved by the Empress of Russia, Catherine the Great. The masterfully twisted plot allows the reader to penetrate into the spirit of the era when each of the two great powers - Prussia and Russia - sought to become the most powerful in Europe. And all these events are revealed by the author against the background of political and love intrigues, scandals, humiliating pretense and intricacies in which famous people and famous politicians are involved. The game they started around Poland pursues one single goal - to get to the heights, to the shining peak. You read the novel to the last page and once again you are convinced that the transition from brilliant heights to the disastrous abyss is too insignificant, that all the thrones of the world are acquired by the power of the mind, power gold and the blood of the people.
