Threads of Treachery: One Seamstress, One Secret, One Empire on the Brink

In the final winter of imperial Russia, revolution simmers beneath the grandeur of Petrograd. Anya Krayev, a gifted seamstress with a quiet past and a dangerous secret, walks between two worlds—stitching fine gowns for the aristocracy by day, smuggling seditious messages by night.

When she is summoned to craft the Tsarina’s coronation gown, Anya sees an opportunity to turn the tide—embedding a hidden message within the threads that could bring the monarchy to its knees.

But inside the gilded halls of power, nothing is as it seems. A shadowed figure from her mother’s past reappears. Friends become uncertain allies. Bloodlines blur. And the deeper Anya weaves herself into palace intrigue, the more her own identity begins to unravel.

As political factions vie for control, Anya must decide where her true loyalty lies. With each stitch, the weight of her family’s buried past presses closer, threatening to destroy not only her cause—but her life.

In a city where beauty is a weapon and betrayal hides beneath silk and gold, will Anya control the pattern she weaves—or be consumed by it?

What truth lies hidden in the fabric of her own legacy?
