About this ebook
Three years after Zenda: the queen's letter is in the wrong hands, Rupert of Hentzau is back in Ruritania, and the Englishman who once impersonated a king is asked to do it again — for a stake that cannot be given back.

Fifty-two plates of northern light and exile, from Munch to Liebermann, follow the novel's courts and coasts through eighty years of European painting.
