This story is about Rasputin and his assassination, told from the perspective of his daughter.\u00c2\u00a0 The author does a pretty good job of telling the story and what it must have been like witnessing her father’s actions and ultimate death.\u00c2\u00a0 The story seems a bit fanciful, however, and I, as the reader, sometimes wondered how much of it could have been true.\u00c2\u00a0 It appears that the author did a great deal of research, but also had to fill in the blanks himself much of the time.<\/p>\n

I would classify this book as an interesting read, but not spellbinding by any means.\"3<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
