Description
From the author of The Battle : A novel that brings French history to life as Napoleon moves in on Russia—where the ultimate test awaits. The French army stands at the gates of Moscow. Exhausted and demoralized, Napoleon's men are a mere fraction of the four-hundred-thousand-strong force that crossed the river Niemen in the summer, just three months earlier. Still, the sight of this famous city feels like a triumph and a chance, at last, to enjoy a conqueror's spoils. The emperor expects to be met by city elders bearing tokens of surrender, but no one appears—Moscow has been evacuated. Napoleon, oblivious to the predicament before him, sends to Paris for comic novels and imagines that it is only a matter of time before Tsar Alexander sues for peace . . . In a novel that "brings a keen immediacy to the harrowing events" ( Publishers Weekly , starred review), what follows is a waiting game—and, ultimately, a decision—that will brutally test the survival of twenty thousand soldiers and the resolve of a man hell-bent on power.
