1918. Russia.
Revolution has descended Russia into a bitter civil war.
Already, Allied intervention forces are ranging themselves alongside loyalist ‘White’ Russians in the expanding struggle against the Bolshevik revolutionaries.
It is a war without pity, for the terrible news has just broken that the Emperor Nicholas II and his family — the last of the centuries-old Romanov dynasty — have been murdered by the Bolsheviks.
On patrol with his men in the forests of North Russia, Captain John Neville of His Majesty’s Royal Marines rescues two men who have been captured by the enemy.
One is a White Russian officer, the other a British agent — and they have an incredible story to tell.
The Russian Emperor and his family are not dead.
What follows is an astonishing tale of adventure as Neville is ordered by the British commander in Archangel to take his men deep into enemy-held territory in order to rescue the Russian Imperial Family.
The Romanov Mission is a thrilling action and adventure, filled with danger, hardship and intrigue, set against the vast backdrop of war-ravaged Russia.

Having been fascinated with the Romanovs since I was a child, I was really into this book. Always thinking, wondering, and questioning while I was reading. And I am ready to read it again. It's such a tragic story and I kept thinking how much I wanted it to be true.Product details

4 Stars
This book is a wonderful “what if” story. Written in the usual historical style which uses no wasted words, it tells the story of the rescue of the Russian royal family.
Captain John Neville, a British soldier, and his mixed team of fifteen men set out to rescue the Romanov family. With the aid of an assortment of characters, they set off with winter on its way.
Along the way, we get a hint of what the Russian countryside is like and the hardships the men had to overcome including fighting the Bolsheviks along the way.
This short novel has a satisfying conclusion. It is well written with an imaginative plot.
Thanking Netgalley and Endeavour Press for allowing me the permission to read this book.
