History is being made and Miles Lord has a ringside seat. The people of Russia have voted to bring back the tsar, a ruler to be selected from the distant relatives of Nicholas II, who was murdered along with the rest of the Romanov family in 1918.
Miles has been asked to run a background check on one of the candidates. But excitement turns to terror when Miles is nearly killed by gunmen.Suddenly, he is racing across continents with only a cryptic utterance by Rasputin, made at the time of the Romanov massacre, as his guide. The implications of this prophecy are earth-shattering not only for the future tsar and mother Russia, but for Miles himself.'Readers who enjoy Dan Brown and Daniel Silva will enjoy THE ROMANOV PROPHECY. This is a wild roller-coaster ride, with explosive action and compelling suspense, delving into one of the great mysteries of our time' -- Sharon Kay Penman, author of the classic bestseller THE SUNNE IN SPLENDOUR 'Perfect for thriller fans and history buffs alike. Fabulous plot twists' -- David Morrell, author of THE PROTECTOR 'Exciting action, an engrossing puzzle, and atmospheric settings make this a great read. Highly recommended' -- Library Journal 'Berry pulls a Dan Brown, throwing the reader right into the action' -- Florida Times-Union 'Intriguing...superb...There is mystery, suspense, thrills...A splendid merger of fact and fiction' -- Dayton Daily News
