Everyone thinks they know the story of Rasputin, the 'mad monk' who bewitched Tsar Nicholas II and his wife Alexandra and changed the course of history. In fact his legend has bewitched historians ever since. Now the bestselling author of Stalingrad charts the riddle at the heart of Rasputin’s relationship with the Romanovs, reevaluating the collapse of the greatest autocracy on earth. Was there any truth to the wild tales that brought down the empire, or is Rasputin’s true legacy an unsettling lesson in the potency of myth?
