About this ebook
An epic young adult novel with glittering magical elements, beautiful prose, and lavish visuals.
“A raw and elegant tale of a country on the brink of revolution and a girl who will do anything to save her beloved Russia.”—Brenna Yovanoff, New York Times bestselling author of The Replacement
“Romance, adventure, magic and history blend seamlessly into a story that is . . . historically sensitive and gloriously thrilling.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
Imperial Russia swirls with rebellion.
But Natalya’s first love and heir to the Russian throne, Alexei Romanov, whispers a secret in her ear: Hidden within the Winter Palace lies a Faberge Egg enchanted by the powerful mystic Rasputin. With it, the Romanovs will never fall from power. The Reds will never triumph over the Whites. And one day, Alexei will ascend the throne and Natalya will be beside him—the tsarina of Russia.
However, when the Reds raid the Winter Palace, the egg vanishes and the Romanovs are captured. Natalya must find the egg to save Alexei, her way of life, and her royal future. She’s forced to ally herself with an enemy—a young Red named Leo who wants the egg for his own purposes. As they brave a war-battered landscape of snow and magic, Natalya realizes that the world isn’t as simple as it seemed back in Saint Petersburg. Nothing—not friends, not politics, not even love—is as clear as Red and White.
