The Winter Palace by Eva Stachniak, 444 pages

This was a new look at the story of Catherine the Great as told by Varvara, a spy in the court of Empress Elizabeth, Catherine's mother-in-law. It brings new depths to the story of Catherine's arrival in Russia, her marriage, her children, and her seizure of the throne. This was a engrossing book, a great read for fans of historical fiction.
