The year is 1916. The fate of millions of people hangs in the
balance, and in Russia's capital city of Petrograd, corruption
rules the day and conspiracy rules the night. But to British
intelligence officer Cleary, the Petrograd post is all about
relationships and carousing. He drinks and parties with the rich
and powerful; he flirts and cavorts with workers and countrymen.
His life is all late, drunken nights, bleary-eyed mornings, and the
occasional report back to London. However, the city is like a
tinder box ready to be set ablaze, and there are dark clouds on the
horizon for Cleary. Rumors circulate that the Tsarina's most
trusted advisor is counseling the Tsar to make peace with Germany.
Cleary, to his horror, is tasked with ending the influence of that
advisor. A man famous for his acts of debauchery; for his heresy
and his power: Gregori Rasputin. And so, the stage is set for one
of the most infamous and strangest assassinations of all time, and
a world that would never be the same. Acclaimed writer and director
Philip Gelatt (Europa Report, They Remain) and renowned artist
Tyler Crook (B.P.R.D., Harrow County)'s debut comic is back in
print, featuring a new cover and introduction from established
historian David R. Stone.
