The Countess of Justice

You’ve landed in the 18th century—use your chance. You’ve got knowledge and experience with you, while the Great French Revolution rumbles all around. The perfect time to make a fortune, hand out prophecies, and, if the opportunity arises, storm banks aboard ship.

It’s not a good idea to go home for now: there, your husband, General Suvorov, is fighting the Turks with Napoleon Bonaparte’s participation. But in France there’s no end of things to do—make sure you have time to talk to those whom history hasn’t yet removed from the stage, suggest a new fashion for the revolution, and earn quite a bit as well. The main thing is to disappear in time, leaving behind a good memory. Or not too good—just unforgettable, especially for Robespierre.

What does the royal family have to do with this? Nothing at all. They were simply running alongside you, down the same road. Now it seems you’ll have to keep an eye on them too. Nothing—Russia the Motherland is used to surprises of all kinds.

With this book, you’ll be able to:

1. Find yourself in the wild and crazy 18th century, plunge into the French Revolution, and manage to get away alive.

2. Drop a hint to Talleyrand about what’s coming, feed Napoleon fresh ideas, and pull the French king out. Almost…

3. Take Constantinople and whirl at a ball in the court of Catherine the Second.

4. Assemble a new secret society with the striking name “White Arrow” and figure out how to use it.

5. Scoop up a whole fortune and fight to ensure General Suvorov’s family survives.
