On a beautiful spring day in 1912, seventeen-year-old Michael Tetov has grand plans as he graduates from the Corps des Pages and looks forward to serving the Empress Alexandra as a page at court. An aristocrat, he's concerned with social graces, with practicing the dictates of the Russian Church, and with properly fulfilling his duties to the tsar. He has little time to think about the great problems Russia faces. At this time, he cannot envision that he would witness the demise of two magnificent worlds-the imperial Russian court of Tsar Nicholas II and the reign of the last maharaja of Shandragar, India. Follow Prince Tetov as he seeks meaning and justice in his life. His escapes during the Russian Revolution of l9l7; his service with Semenov, the Monster of the Urals; and his kidnapping during the savage Malabar Riots in India destroy his faith in mankind. Love affairs with a servant-turned-Bolshevik, a peasant-turned-partisan fighter, and a titled English lady contribute to his efforts to find his soul. "For the Tsar and the Raj" tells the tale of a hero who lived in the precarious times that reshaped the world.

Rosemary Shane is a beautiful woman, and it is time for John Whitney, her fiance and the oldest son in a content Christian family, to bring her home to meet everyone. As she sits down to dinner, no one knows that encased within her are demons far worse than any storied horror. Rosemary is a psychic vampire. John, disillusioned from his military service in Iraq, is desperately searching for meaning in life. The Whitney family is thrilled to meet Rosemary, but they have no idea that misery is about to befall all of them. In his vulnerable state, John has fallen victim to Rosemary's powerful spell. As soon as the family realizes Rosemary is using her radical, hellfire version of Christianity to subdue and placate his mind, they make every attempt to combat the cultish brainwashing that has seemingly transformed John into a completely different person. If it is true that legendary vampires find nourishment in human blood, then psychic vampires must feed on the human mind. In this classic battle of good versus evil, the Whitney family must quickly find a way to save their brother before Rosemary's satanic forces steal him away from them forever.
