BLOODY SUNSET

A thrilling historical adventure in the shadow of the Russian Revolution. In the aftermath of the Russian Revolution, Lieutenant Bob Cowan of the British Royal Navy must rescue a party of five women, including two of the Tsar?s daughters. With the women holed up in a refuge a hundred miles up the Astrakhan river, this will be easier said than done. Astrakhan, where the Volga empties into the Caspian, was a Bolshevik stronghold, sizeable naval base and army command of half a million men. And the British Navy is here to fight Turks and Germans, not Bolsheviks. How can anyone be sure ? in a climate of treachery and deception ? that this isn?t some kind of a trap? Getting in there will be difficult enough, what chance will he have of getting out? With high-tension action and excellent historical detail, Bloody Sunset is ideal for fans of Douglas Reeman and Philip McCutchan.
