The Natalie Brandon Thrillers

The Romanov Legacy

A murdered tsar. A missing treasure. One woman holds the key.

Natalie Brandon knows Nicholas II, the last Russian tsar, left behind a secret bank account to provide for his family in exile. But getting someone to believe her is harder than finding the account itself.

Diagnosed with schizophrenia, Natalie is haunted by a recurring hallucination, the voice of an angel named Belial. Even her sister, a history professor, won’t take her claim seriously…until a Russian spy kidnaps Natalie, claiming she’s the only one who can lead him to the treasure.

But Russian Prime Minister Maxim Starinov will do anything to get it first. He joins the deadly hunt, ensnaring Natalie’s sister, Constantine’s partner, and a loyal Russian family whose only mission is to guard the Romanovs’ secret. With her ghostly intuition guiding them, Natalie and Constantine fight to protect the ones they love and the tsar’s legacy from a greedy despot.
