The Danilov Quintet

It is a story that begins in 1812, in what seems Russia\'s darkest hour. Yet in the midst of Napoleon\'s invasion, a new and terrifying danger emerges, one which will haunt the Danilov family across generations - just as it already has a far more prestigious Russian family.

It will end a hundred and five years later - as the dynasty of the Tsars itself comes to an end - when the last of the Danilovs finally confronts the horror that his ancestor invited into the country, so many years before.
