The Bolshoi Saga: Lana

Lana Dukovskaya is an up and coming talent at the Bolshoi Ballet, where her mother, Marina, also danced until her career came to a mysterious end. On the eve of an international tour, Lana's best friend and chief rival is brutally attacked, making Lana both the substitute soloist and the prime suspect.

Once in New York, Lana meets Georgi Levshik, a powerful Russian migr who claims to know the truth about her mother's past. Lana is wary, torn between curiosity and distrust. But when another young dancer is struck down just hours before her debut, Lana knows she is in danger. On the run, Lana puts her trust in Levshik's alluring bodyguard, Roma. Together they must uncover the truth about a blood feud involving three generations of Dukovskaya dancers.
