1855 - Vladivostok, Russia - San Francisco, California A Russian Army major and count is viciously attacked and nearly murdered by the Russian Grand Duke. Desperately wanting to know why. He struggles to return home, find the answers, and return to his life of Russian nobility, but poverty and adversity block his path. In San Francisco, Mikhail Diebitsch-Zabalkansky is robbed and left for dead. Struggling for his life, Mikhail crawls from under the docks of the Barbary Coast and finds shelter with a benevolent widow, where he painfully recovers. While still recuperating, Mikhail overhears the three ladies who saved his life complain bitterly about his obnoxious arrogance and churlish demands. He shamefully realizes that his nobility means nothing in San Francisco, changes his arrogant mindset about a peasant class, and begins using his education and skills to help others. The Russian grand duke and his guards arrive in San Francisco to arrest Mikhail and return him to Russia to stand trial for desertion during a time of war. A certain death sentence. Can Mikhail build his future in the new world, or will the power of the Russian Empire overtake and execute him?
