The Man with the Red Beard, A Story of Moscow and London
A journalist just back from a year covering the simmering, not-yet-revolution in Russia, a dissident (or is he a spy?) with a stolen gem, a chance encounter, a shot in the night on a crowded street. Our journalist story-teller has now become a knight errant and begins his journey back to Russia to rescue the dissident's amour, only to find himself falling in love. His action packed story will take us from London to Moscow and back again, as he dives deeply into the dark and murky circles of revolution and suppression in tsarist Russia. (Summary by MaryAnn)
