About the book

Autumn 1917. Petrograd. Power passes into the hands of the Bolsheviks, and a general expropriation of private property begins. The owner of the jewelry firm Fabergé Partnership understands that his workshop will be plundered any day now and devises a cunning plan to save especially valuable jewels made to special order for the imperial house. The jeweler will have to act in conditions “close to combat”. The point is that the chairman of the Petrograd Cheka, Comrade Uritsky himself, has taken an interest in Fabergé's pieces. And not only he. The leader of the most desperate gang in Petrograd is not averse to getting rich at the expense of the “bourgeois” either...
