Description
It is 1993 and Ashley Cooper, in his fiftieth year, loves his work at a prestigious law firm, dealing with post-perestroika Russia. He has it all: a 5th Avenue penthouse overlooking New York’s Central Park, membership in all the right clubs, fast cars, and an even faster mistress. But people start dying, including his wife and some close family and friends. With the help of his beloved teenaged daughter, Annie, he begins studying diaries written by his real father and grandfather, which expose the World War II atrocity of the ‘Iron Cage’ and the presence of supernatural forces working to hide him from those who would assassinate him. He is the hidden prince, destined to lead the Iskandarov clan into the 21st century, and he must be severely tested by the formidable forces of the Polinkov—the deadly rivals of the Iskanderov for millennia. This is the first novel in a series called People of the Blood.
