From Publishers Weekly From the author of Leonie and The Rich Shall Inherit comes thiseventful novel of romantic intrigue, briskly plotted and wellresearched, centering on a fabulous emerald--a maharajah's gift to aRussian prince on the eve of the Revolution. Fleeing in 1917 withtheir gems, Princess Anouska Ivanoff, her children and their Englishguest Verity ("Missie") Byron, 18, had been waylaid in a snowy wood bydrunken Bolshevik peasants. Brutally raped, Anouska had died. her sonAlexei was adopted by a kindly officer and raised as aCommunist. Missie, however, took Anouska's daughter Xenia to America,became a Ziegfield girl and Hollywood star. Now white-haired, Missielives in Maryland among her rich memories; her flashbacks eventuallyilluminate contemporary events. Meanwhile, three drinkers in a Genevabar want to find the eponymous "lady" who put up the newly cut emeraldat auction: Genie Reese, the Washington newswoman assigned to thestory; likable Bronx-born politician Cal Warrender; and CommunistValentin Solovsky, elegant cultural attache to Washington, who isreally Prince Ivanoff's descendant. But Valentin's malevolenthalf-brother Boris, head of the KGB, is bent on destroying Valentinand the mysterious lady. A boozy gem-cutter in Bangkok, a captivewife, a murderer in Dusseldorf add to the story's zesty cast, whoselives come together in its surprising conclusion.Copyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. From School Library Journal YA-- A sweeping romantic epic. An emerald from an aristocratic Russian family tiara, missing since the Bolshevik Revolution, turns up in Geneva and provides the key to an international cat-and-mouse game of intrigue and espionage. Filled with vivid descriptions of characters and places, the book is at once a love story, a mystery, and a spy thriller that will transport YAs to such exotic locales as Russia, Istanbul, and the teeming streets of New York's Lower East Side. The search for the mystery lady who put the gem up for sale will absorb readers until the novel's conclusion, when all of the characters and events come together in a rich and fulfilling resolution.- Roberta Lisker, W. T. Woodson High School, Fairfax, VACopyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. See all Editorial Reviews
