The Girl From Saint Petersburg (The Thread of Truth Series)

From Amazon bestseller and Ben Franklin Award winner Joyana Peters, author of The Girl in the Triangle, comes a story of loss and sacrifice -- and ultimately, of survival.

Russia, 1905. A country on the brink of revolution. A family torn apart.

When the violent Bloody Sunday Massacre fractures her world, Ruth's simple life in her close-knit village is shattered forever. Her father and her first love are forced to flee to America for survival, leaving Ruth and her family trapped behind in a land consumed by chaos, hunger, and rising terror.

Refusing to succumb to the violence threatening to destroy them, Ruth must find a fierce strength within her soul. To keep her mother and sister alive in a lawless world, she is forced to cross lines she never thought possible—whether she must work, beg, or steal.

But a deadly predicament threatens to put her own neck in an executioner's noose. Can she save the ones she loves without sacrificing her own future?

An award-winning, emotionally raw historical saga of sacrifice, fierce grit, and ultimate resilience. Perfect for fans of The Alice Network and The Lilac Girls.
