    August 1913. Oryol Governorate, Russian Empire.
     
    They met at the moment when the world was still holding together on a wing and a prayer.
     
    Princess Marina Sheremeteva sees what others cannot — the threads of fate that bind people across time and space. She studies quantum physics and guards the secrets of village magic, passed down from her healer grandmother. Two men fall in love with her in an instant: Alexei, a passionate populist dreaming of revolution, and Stepan, a cynical raznochinets who clawed his way up from nothing. But their love becomes not a romance, but a sentence.
     
    When Marina uncovers a terrifying truth — that the revolution is being financed by German bankers to destroy Russia from within — she binds her beloved men with an ancient ritual. Red threads appear on their fingers. Now they feel each other's pain and joy. They are a quantum pair, inseparable even by death.
     
    But 1917 is coming. The empire crumbles. The truth, inscribed on a wooden spoon, becomes a deadly threat to the new masters of life. Little Andryusha, Marina's brother, carries this spoon through famine, civil war, and the Red Terror. He knows: if the spoon burns, the truth will remain in the people.
     
    "The Red Thread in the Quantum World of Love" is a novel about how love becomes stronger than death, how memory triumphs over oblivion, how the Russian character survives in hell.
     
    They were bound by a red thread. It could not be broken. It could only be passed on.

    In this latest installment of the beloved Isabel Dalhousie series, everyone's favorite moral philosopher and amateur sleuth takes on a new set of delicate disputes 
     
    Isabel has an unwavering commitment to her principles, which means she is often asked to advise on the sensitive, personal affairs of others--even those whose business she would prefer to stay out of. 
     
    When Isabel receives a surprise visit from a friend who has recently discovered the existence of a long-lost brother, she will have to face this quandary in her usual deft and thoughtful way. The friend has always held her father in high regard, and is worried that knowledge of his affair will tarnish her siblings' perception of him. Meanwhile, Isabel's husband Jamie has been offered the gig of his dreams--the opportunity to play in a series of concerts at a prestigious venue in London. After meeting the series coordinator, it becomes clear to Isabel that the woman has a massive crush on Jamie. Isabel isn't sure whether to reveal the woman's intentions. Should she tell Jamie of her suspicions, or would that mean calling his talent into question? 
     
    And finally, the ever-frustrating Professor Lettuce returns, this time embroiled in a ridiculous dispute with his friend Professor Dove. Somehow, Isabel gets dragged into resolving the affair. As always, Isabel will have to use her pragmatic sensibility and kindness to navigate these tricky situations.
