In Paris Colonel Hercules Hoffman, guardian of Maurice Hammond, faces a dangerous confrontation with Vladimir Saradoff who accuses him of embezzling a large jewel estate. Saradoff lays a chilling demand: arrange Maurice’s invitation to visit St Petersburg, or face ruin. Hoffman weighs ruinous options as a tense intercontinental plot unfolds toward the frontier.
Maurice Hammend and his friend Phil Danford travel from New York to Russia to visit Vladimir Saradoff, Maurice’s aristocratic uncle. In St Petersburg they are greeted formally, but Vladimir hides a calculating, wealth-draining plan. He writes secret letters while plotting to regain prestige and wealth as the two boys tour under trusted servants’ guidance. The Ivy Social club dance is noted as well.
