The Guardsman

Igor Gusarov, our contemporary, found himself in the past — in the body of a young Courland nobleman Dietrich von Hofen, who decided to try his luck in the "barbaric and wild Moscow".

It is the summer of 1735. The "Biron era" — a dreadful time for the country. People disappear at night, the rack and the heated pincers of the executioner in the Secret Chancellery know no rest.

A troubled period on the eve of the Russo-Turkish war, when a clever and enterprising person with a sword and a pistol can drastically change his fate — and the fate of the country.

– The book includes the novels "The Guardsman," "The Roads of Europe," and "Farewell, Guards!".
