Johan Eschbach, Professor of Environmental Science and semi-retired
secret agent, and his lovely wife the world-renowned singer
Llysette, return for another adventure, this time in Russia, during
the long 'white nights' of summer. Their world is an intriguing
alternate present in which many things are changed. What we know as
the eastern U.S. is the nation of Columbia, and Russia is still
ruled by the Czars. Llysette is being sent by the Columbian
government on a cultural exchange mission to St. Petersburg. Johan
will, of course, accompany her, allowing him to work behind the
scenes on the oil concession in Russian Alaska that Columbia so
desperately needs. But even the oil shortage will fade to
insignificance when Johan discovers what new weapons technology the
Russians are developing, a threat even more fearsome than the
atomic bombs of Austro-Hungary. This is the concluding novel of the
of alternate history adventure trilogy that Modesitt began with "Of
Tangible Ghosts" and "The Ghost of the Revelator."
