Poland 1939. It is the Russian occupation, not the German invasion, which destroys the aristocratic Kolbeck family. In 1940, they and hundreds of thousands of Poles are driven like cattle into the wastes of Siberia where they are forced to labor in the cause of 'democracy'. Stephanie's husband offended the tiles of blood and class when he brought her into the Kolbeck family. Now she has to fend for herself amongst people who not only consider her an inferior, but harbor a secret about her past which they cannot reveal. During the horrific journey from Siberia to the northern borders of Persia, Stephanie loses nearly all those she loves, including three baby sons; and discovers the true meaning of being polish - and a Kolbeck.
