In 1725, Elizabeth Petrovna, daughter of the great Emperor Peter I, embarked on a sleigh to Versailles with her father's unfulfilled ambition.
This is a marriage that shouldn't exist. At a turning point in history, France did not reject the Russian princess of "questionable origin", but instead embraced the storm that was about to sweep across Europe.
Facing her suspicious and melancholy husband, the powerful cardinal, the nobles who regarded her as a barbarian, and the poisoning and assassination surging in the dark, Elizabeth struggled to rise in the golden cage. She used the iron fist of the Slavs to rewrite the rules of Versailles and redraw the map of Europe with the sway of her skirt.
