The Silence of the Angels, Dinah McCall

In St. Petersburg, in December 1825, Nicolas Ozareff and his friends, a group of generous aristocrats and military men, attempted to overthrow the autocratic regime and impose a liberal constitution. Gathered in Senate Square, the "Decembrists" were decimated by the cannons of the future Tsar Nicholas I. The survivors, thrown into the dungeons of the St. Peter and St. Paul Fortress, were hanged or deported to Siberia. How would Sophie, who had just learned of her husband's infidelity, react to the news of the danger threatening him?
