When she asks Surgei to send his daughter, Alice, to help her in a hospital she is establishing in St. Petersburg, Alice adamantly refuses. But when her father threatens to disown her, she reluctantly agrees to help the Countess for six months. That same summer, Natalya Tcychowski, is coping with a crisis of her own. Having run afoul of the local bailiff, her brother, Oleksi, is forced to flee from their home village of Zgardy, which is under the control of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. When he arrives in St. Petersburg, Oleksi seeks the help of the countess, who owes his father a debt of gratitude for saving her life 22 years earlier. The outbreak of war in 1914 puts both Natalyas and Alices lives on a path they could not have foreseen and cannot avoid, and as Russia is sent into upheaval by the revolutions of 1917, both Natalya and Alice fight for their lives in a country that is rapidly unraveling.
