Russia, 1942: One man, one woman. And a desperate ride to stay alive
´The black earth was already baking and the sun was just rising when they mounted their horses and rode across the grasslands towards the horizon on fire ...´
Imprisoned in the Gulags for a crime he did not commit, Benya Golden joins a penal battalion made up of Cossacks and convicts to fight the Nazis.
He enrols in the Russian cavalry, and on a hot summer day in July 1942, he and his band of brothers are sent on a desperate mission behind enemy lines.
Switching between Benya´s war in the grasslands of Southern Russia, and Stalin´s plans in the Kremlin, between Benya´s intense affair with an Italian nurse and a romance between Stalin´s daughter and a journalist also on the Eastern Front, this is a sweeping story of passion, bravery and human survival where personal betrayal is a constant companion, and death just a heartbeat away.
