The narrator plans a covert voyage to Siberia for a crucial private interview with a Russian political prisoner. With forged letters and funds, he travels from London to St. Petersburg, obtains a passport from the Emperor, and learns that the target, Dr. Ceneri, was captured in a vast police crackdown in St. Petersburg after a failed assassination plot.
