Once, Russia was a place split between breathtaking wealth and desperate poverty. Now, as the country conforms under Stalin's violent rule, a young woman becomes a fugitive, and a storied hero turns into a living, breathing man...

Davinsky Labor Camp, Siberia, 1933: They've worked her like a slave- and almost starved her to death. Only two things in this wretched place keep Sofia alive: the prospect of one day walking free again, and the stories told by her friend Anna of a charmed childhood in Petrograd filled with parties and pearls-and of her fervent young love for a passionate revolutionary, Vasily.

After a perilous escape, Sofia endures months of hardship, with the echo of her footsteps her only companion. But, clinging to a promise she made to Anna, she sets out to track down Vasily. In a remote village, where she's nursed to health by a Gypsy family, she finds more than refuge-she also finds Mikhail Pashin, who, she is certain, is Vasily in disguise. She can- not stop herself from falling in love with him-but he belongs to Anna.

After coming this far, Sofia is tantalizingly close to freedom, family-even a future. All that stands in her way is the secret past that could endanger everything she has come to hold dear...
