The Royal Lily

Elena Dorosh is a philosopher and a subtle psychologist. In an engaging form of an intense novel, she tells about eternal values: love, kindness, mutual understanding, and mutual help. In her books, good always defeats evil, and justice triumphs.

Aleksey Okruzhin is a winemaker who has achieved everything himself. He owns vineyards and wineries scattered around the world. For the most part he lives abroad; in Russia, only his grandfather remains from family. And then Aleksey receives word that Makar Ivanovich has died. He didn’t make it to the funeral, but later he arrives and visits the house where the grandfather worked as a caretaker in the last years. It turns out to be a large family of the Olkhovskys living in a country manor. Aleksey stays in the caretaker’s cottage on the pretext that he wants to be where the grandfather spent his last days. In reality, the circumstances of Makar Ivanovich’s death alarm him…

Elena Dorosh writes for those who don’t fall into despair, aren’t afraid of trials, and expect only good from life. Her books are not just detective stories. They are also about love. Each one opens up an exciting, sometimes little-known side of human existence.
