Revolutionary, poet, lover. Robber, murderer, spy. May 1907 and a young Stalin is in London for a conference of Russian communists. With Lenin, Trotsky, and Rosa Luxemburg among others he battles to keep the party radical, while dodging the attentions of the Czar' s secret police. He also finds himself drawn to a fiery Finnish activist, Elli Vuokko, beginning a relationship that is as dangerous as it is complicated.

What can I say, except that I wish I had written it myself? -- Hilary Mantel A fascinating and immersive imagining of real events that both challenges and illuminates history. -- Benjamin Myers Boldly conceived, precisely imagined, beautifully written. -- Michael Stewart Stephen May' s writing is convincing and engaging in this brilliant tale of revolutionary shenanigans in London. -- Suzanne Joinson
