"I read The Race to Save the Romanovs in more or less in a single sitting. It's absolutely marvellous - packed with details, beautifully paced and told me lots of things I didn't know." -- PETER FRANKOPAN "What I always love about Helen Rappaport's books is that they appeal to the heart as well as the head. She's a writer of great compassion." -- LUCY WORSLEY "A groundbreaking book... [which] prove[s] that, even as the centenary of their deaths by firing squad at Ekaterinburg approaches... there remain fresh angles and, crucially, unused evidence pertaining to the Romanovs." * The Daily Telegraph * "Highly entertaining... Rappaport introduces us to a colourful array of con men, charlatans and fantasists involved in ideas to free the Romanovs... She is a vivid storyteller" -- Victor Sebestyen * Sunday Times * "Gripping... Rappaport has uncovered many missing pieces in the story, from the diplomatic wrangling over the tsar's fate to a number of "hare-brained" rescue schemes hatched by monarchist sympathisers." * The Times *
