The illegitimate son of the Russian empress Sofia and the monk Rasputin soon becomes embroiled in the politics of the emerging state of workers and peasants.

His liquidation activities lead him to Czechoslovakia by the end of the war. There, he meets the daughter of a former 'White Guard' and faces a serious decision...
