Philip Cummings, sent to collect the final consignment, finds his transport home mysteriously leaves without him. Trapped by the Russian Revolution, he is forced to escape across the heart of Russia. 

As the  excesses of Romanov aristocracy meets the passion and brutality of Russian revolutionary zeal Russia descends into chaos,  and Philip's journey becomes ever more desperate.

Who has betrayed him and why do they want him dead?

Does the Bank of England still have Romanov jewels in it's vaults?

As recently as 1960 sir Edward Peacock, then Director of the Bank of England, stated:

"I am pretty sure there was never any money of the Imperial Family of Russia in the Bank of England, nor in any other bank in England. Of course it is difficult to say "never".
