    At one point, I thought I was listening to an abridged version and some important details (like people, plot, events) had been omitted. I backtracked a few times because I thought I had missed something. I don't recommend. In fact, I recommend against reading.

    He was Grand Duke Michael, handsome brother of Tsar Nicholas II. She was the beautiful twice-divorced daughter of a Moscow lawyer. Their scandalous love affair and their runaway marriage to Vienna in 1912, trailed by the Tsar's secret police, caused uproar in Russia and was the talk of all Europe.

    A very good read. Put historical events in perspective of someone's life - never dull or boring. The reader was also quite good.
