Romanovs: A Step Over the Abyss. Historical Research - Russia from the Time of Troubles to Peter

Could the royal dynasty have avoided a tragic fate? Three centuries of Romanov rule through a series of events in which divine providence, fate, free will, and happy chance intertwine.

Irina Belova - historian, screenwriter, author of the bestseller "The Queen's Move" - shows that there are no coincidences in history: from the ascension to the throne of Mikhail Fyodorovich to the reforms of Peter the Great, she traces how the path of the dynasty was shaped by times of trouble, dynastic crises, and court intrigues.

A view of Russia's past not through politics, but through the concept of destiny: a flash of anger, a careless word, or a marriage of convenience - and the course of events changed for decades to come. The history of the royal eras through the prism of human passions and clashes of character under one cover.
