LOVE UPON KNIVES - A Novel of...

ANNA GOGOLEVA

St. Petersburg, 1795. The glittering capital of Catherine the Great—a city of palatial wealth and abject poverty, where a single misstep can cost a life and a single glance can change a destiny.

Katya is nineteen years old, a floor-washer in the Winter Palace. Orphaned, illiterate, with nothing but her mother's river-pearl necklace and hands raw from lye, she expects nothing from life but more of the same: endless floors, endless servitude, endless invisibility.

Until the night a fortune-teller comes to the servants' hall.

The cards speak of a tower struck by lightning, a moon shrouded in deceit, and two lovers destined to walk on knives. Katya laughs—until she looks up and sees him standing in the doorway.

Baron Karl von Kleist is the Prussian envoy to the Russian court: brilliant, cultured, married to a woman he does not love. He has spent twenty years building a career, a reputation, a life of cold calculation. He has never once looked at a servant as anything but furniture.

But when his eyes meet Katya's across a candlelit room, something cracks inside him. Something he cannot name. Something he cannot control.

What begins as a stolen glance becomes a secret meeting in a moonlit garden. A kiss on a callused hand becomes a duel in a snow-covered forest. A forbidden love becomes a desperate flight across borders—and a choice that will cost them everything.

But in a world where nobles scheme and empresses watch, where Counts hunger for revenge and the Secret Chancellery hunts for spies, can a German baron and a Russian peasant build a life together? Can love survive the weight of empire?

Based on the timeless themes of passion, sacrifice, and the eternal power of the human heart, Love Upon Knives is a sweeping historical romance that asks the oldest question of all:

How far would you go for the one you love?

Songbook - The Lyrics and Music...

Steven Heighton

From the award-winning, multi-genre author and musician Steven Heighton, Songbook brings together Heighton’s lyrics and music for the first time in a single volume, including his final songs, which have never been heard or seen until now. When Steven Heighton died suddenly of cancer in 2022, he was in the middle of an intensely creative period of songwriting. He released his first album of original material, The Devil’s Share, in 2021 and was preparing to record his second album. Known first as a poet, Heighton had always held that “music and poetry are two words for the same thing.”
		 
As in his songwriting, in Songbook, Heighton moves fluidly between genres and subjects, from political songs like “The Butcher’s Bill,” about the carelessness of nations sending their youth to war, to reimagining the myth of Orpheus (“I'll hold my breath the whole way down / And find your soul in the undertown”), to blues tunes like “Last Living Woman Alive,” and a tribute to the late John Prine, the “Buddha of Song.” With chords accompanying the lyrics, readers and musicians have the ability to bring the songs to life with their own interpretations. The music in Songbook was the final work of Heighton’s life, and it is not only a gift to have his lyrics and chords but an invitation from Heighton himself, challenging his readers to answer the call and keep singing along.
