History knows many great names - Joan of Arc, Napoleon, Rasputin...
People who were led by a star, people whose willpower and spirit changed the fate of entire countries. But each of them had one thing in common - betrayal.
They were betrayed by friends, allies, their own nations and even by those who swore to serve God. Their fates are a chronicle of pain and courage, light and ashes.
From the fire of Rouen to the fire of Moscow, from the secret halls of Masonic lodges to the last exile on the islands - in these pages the truth that was hidden for so long comes to life.
This book is not only about the great personalities of the past.
It is about the very nature of betrayal, about how fear and thirst for power destroy empires, and about how the light of one soul can outlive any conspiracies.
"The Empire of Betrayal. "The Star and Ashes of Great Souls" is a look through the prism of centuries, it is the voice of those who were silenced. But their star still burns.
