When World War I broke out in 1914 Russia's Romanov dynasty was among the world's richest families.

The author has spent 30 years on the trail of the Tsar's lost fortune. His pursuit has taken him across continents, to dusty vaults in great banks: bullion, jewels and bank accounts have been his quarry. This book contains an account of his answers.
