In the turbulent years leading up to the First World War, Malcolm Hay, an aspiring engineer for the Ukrainian-English Oil Company, finds himself entangled in a web of political intrigue and power plays in the heart of Russia.
Amidst the glittering salons of London and the dangerous streets of Kiev, Malcolm crosses paths with the alluring Grand-Duchess Irene Yaroslav. She becomes a pawn in a ruthless game orchestrated by the ambitious Russian prince, Serganoff, and their fates intertwine with the enigmatic American gunman, Cherry Bim. When Hay is bestowed with The Book of All-Power, a mysterious tome with the promise of unparalleled influence, he quickly realizes the gravity of possessing such a tool amidst a rising tide of revolution and conspiracy.
The Russian Revolution’s stormy winds bring change, danger, and a harsh new order. Irene, once an aristocrat, is now a mere servant, tormented by her former butler, Boolba, who has risen to power as a loyal Bolshevik. As old regimes crumble and new powers emerge, Malcolm, Irene, and Bim find themselves on the run, pursued by relentless enemies and the weight of history.
With trust as rare as the English notes hidden within the Book of All-Power, they must navigate through the chaos, escape Russia’s tightening grip, and guard the book’s true secret, all while grappling with shifting loyalties and the question of who truly holds power.
