By: Irina Shapiro

Narrated by: Wendy Wolfson

What price is too high for survival?

Petrograd, 1917. Eighteen-year-old Valentina Kalinina’s life of aristocratic privilege is shattered in an instant when Bolshevik rebels storm her home. Her father is murdered before her eyes, her beloved fiancé Alexei falls to a revolutionary’s bayonet, and Valentina barely escapes to England with her life. Stranded in a foreign country with no money or support, salvation arrives in the form of a charming cousin, Dmitri, who offers her sanctuary in his Belgravia mansion. Valentina believes her nightmare is over, until she realizes that Dmitri’s generosity comes at a horrifying price…

Present day. When archaeologist Quinn Allenby discovers a skeleton sealed behind a wardrobe in a London house, she expects another routine investigation. But the moment she touches a delicate Fabergé necklace, Quinn is thrust into Valentina’s world of revolution and betrayal. As Quinn pieces together the Russian girl’s desperate story while juggling new motherhood, she realizes that exposing the truth about the mysterious skeleton will have devastating consequences for her own future…

Fans of Diana Gabaldon, Barbara Erskine, and Susanna Kearsley will devour this gripping story of survival, betrayal, and the dangerous lengths we go to protect those we love.

the unseen.

this was a good book and it kept me interested. it had a good plot. the narrator did a great job.

Wow!

This story was absolutely riveting as I listened along…totally engrossed in both the present-day mystery involving Quinn as well as the 1917 mystery of exactly whose bones were found in the hidden bathtub and how and why that person met his untimely end. Ms. Shapiro’s “Echoes From the Past Series” is a great collection of stories that will intrigue those who love romantic mystery stories. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
