1814. Bonaparte is defeated, and the Russian army victoriously enters Paris. Everything here is stunningly beautiful: the streets, avenues, cathedrals, and squares. And also—the women here are stunningly beautiful.

Lieutenant Nikolai Ozarev is amazed by everything he sees. But the most important thing is yet to come: he meets Sophie de Champlitte. A proud, freedom-loving beauty in mourning for her deceased husband, she doesn't immediately accept the attentions of a Russian officer who fought against the French army. But eventually, he wins her heart. Nikolai swears that Sophie will never regret entrusting her fate to him. And she will never regret agreeing to leave with him for distant, unfamiliar Russia.

So they find themselves in St. Petersburg—a cold, majestic city, but a foreign one for Sophie. And this is only the first part of their novel - and the first part of the cycle by Henri Troyat, whose cycle "Light of the Righteous," dedicated to the Decembrists, was written with great love for Russian history and great love for the heroes, whose prototypes made this history.
