Backstage (Unabridged‪)‬

After the Bolsheviks seized power, Lenin entrusted the security officers Dzerzhinsky and Blumkin with a secret operation to prevent the possibility of restoring the hereditary monarchy in Russia and destroying any evidence of cooperation of the new government with Russia’s enemy in the Great War, the German Empire. Yakov Blumkin fell in love at first sight with Princess Natalia Paleyand and promised to save her brother Vladimir. A series of events, starting with the murder of the German ambassador and the royal family, the betrayal of the German communists and the prevention of the transfer of funds in France to the White Guards, led him under the guise of Richard Sorge to the main purpose of his life, when he played a decisive role in choosing the southern direction of Japan's aggression.
