Charlotte Zeepvat Pořadí knih (chronologicky)
Charlotte píše o propojení historie, diplomacie a umění. Její díla se zaměřují na méně známé aspekty minulosti a často zkoumají vztahy mezi zdánlivě nesourodými tématy, jako je sběratelství umění a špionáž. S hlubokým zájmem o literaturu první světové války a historii portrétů vnáší do svých prací unikátní perspektivu. Její styl je pečlivý a pohlcující, čtenáře zavádí do detailů historických událostí a postav.

There is a continuing fascination with the Romanov dynasty that ruled Russia for over 300 years. Charlotte Zeepvat seeks to widen the picture by looking at the lives of members of the family during the last century of imperial rule, a time of contrasts and a period in which the Tsars reached the peak of their wealth, prestige and power, yet also faced the growth of forces which would destroy them.
