Death in St. Petersburg

fullDescription

"Amato's narration is easy to listen to, and her accents are excellent." — AudioFile Magazine
From New York Times bestselling author Tasha Alexander comes the latest installment in the Lady Emily series. Death in St. Petersburg is a gripping new audiobook that will mesmerize fans of historical fiction and classic mysteries alike.
After the final curtain of Swan Lake, an animated crowd exits the Mariinsky theatre brimming with excitement from the night's performance. But outside the scene is somber. A ballerina's body lies face down in the snow, blood splattered like rose petals over the costume of the Swan Queen. The crowd is silenced by a single cry— "Nemetseva is dead!"
Amongst the theatergoers is Lady Emily, accompanying her dashing husband Colin in Russia on assignment from the Crown. But it soon becomes clear that Colin isn't the only one with work to do. When the dead ballerina's aristocratic lover comes begging for justice, Emily must apply her own set of skills to discover the rising star's murderer. Her investigation takes her on a dance across the stage of Tsarist Russia, from the opulence of the Winter Palace, to the modest flats of ex-ballerinas and the locked attics of political radicals.
A mysterious dancer in white follows closely behind, making waves through St. Petersburg with her surprise performances and trail of red scarves. Is it the sweet Katenka, Nemetseva's childhood friend and favorite rival? The ghost of the murdered étoile herself? Or, something even more sinister?

   • content: Author Tasha Alexander's extensive research creates a story brimming with the drama and opulence of czarist Russia in early 1900. Narrator Bianca Amato portrays Lady Emily, an independent, intelligent woman who has joined her husband, who is on assignment in Russia for the British government. Amato's narration is easy to listen to, and her accents are excellent, but the multitude of Russian names and their derivatives are difficult to sort out. Some of the characters have Russian accents, but during flashbacks their accents become British, which adds to the confusion. The story follows Lady Emily's investigation into the murder of a famous ballerina. Fans of Lady Emily will be pleased to follow her persistent interrogation but must be prepared to focus.

     August 28, 2017
     In bestseller Alexander’s well-crafted 12th Lady Emily novel (after 2016’s A Terrible Beauty), the redoubtable Englishwoman joins her husband, intelligence agent Colin Hargreaves, on a trip to St. Petersburg in January 1900. The couple attend a performance of Swan Lake at the Mariinksky Theatre, where ballet sensation Irina Nemetseva dances the lead, though they’re puzzled when another ballerina dances the final act. Later, they discover that Irina lies stabbed to death outside the stage door, still wearing her swan costume. After Prince Vasilii Guryanov, the dancer’s secret lover, asks Emily to help find her killer, Emily probes Irina’s circle, including her oldest friend and rival: fellow ballerina Ekaterina “Katenka” Sokolova. Katenka is the sister of Irina’s former love, a young man whose idealism is dangerous in repressive Russia. Do their tangled relationships give a motive to murder the star? In addition to a satisfying puzzle and the always appealing protagonist, Alexander delivers a memorable portrait of a fairy-tale city dancing on the brink of revolution. Agent: Anne Hawkins, John Hawkins & Associates.
