Unbridled morals, wild passions, Cossack and masculine freemen, rushing from the steppes, engulfed in rebellion, to Moscow and St. Petersburg. Conspiracies, intricacies of intrigue at the court of "mother-empress" Catherine II, as voluptuous as cruel. And next to her are illustrious statesmen ... All this is resurrected by the famous epic of Vyacheslav Shishkov - a powerful, multi-colored story about one of the most dramatic eras in Russian history.
