About the Book

Red Blood/White Snow moves the reader through a troubled marriage, religious differences, vulnerable children, and Stalin's failed treaty with Hitler. Ivan (Vanya) Markarov's ordinary family life is catapulted into catastrophic events beyond his wildest imagination.  Orders arrive from the Leningrad Soviet: The engineer Vanya will relocate to the Kirov Works in Leningrad. Delighted with his good fortune--and happy to leave Anya's Jewish parents-- Ivan Alexandrovich moves the family from Sevastopol to the city of Peter the Great. Within months, the first German bombs plunge the Markarovs into a fight for the survival of their marriage, their children, and their country.
