En la Rusia de 1915, un joven llamado Georgy Jachmenev se convierte en héroe al recibir una bala destinada a un miembro de la familia imperial rusa. Este acto lo lleva a ser guardaespaldas de Alexei Romanov, hijo del zar Nicolás II. Sesenta años después, mientras acompaña a su esposa Zoya en un hospital de Londres, los recuerdos de su vida juntos resurgen, marcados por la tragedia, la pérdida y el exilio. Esta novela narra la historia de un hombre humilde que se ve inmerso en el declive de un imperio, desde el San Petersburgo revolucionario hasta el París de la posguerra y el Londres de los años 80, culminando en un hospital donde se resuelve la historia de Georgy y Zoya.
