The Romanov Cross

Afterword

As some readers may have noticed, certain authorial liberties have been taken with the Alaskan backdrop of this story. For instance, you won’t find on any map St. Peter’s Island, the town of Port Orlov, or a road leading directly from the northwest coast into the city of Nome. Consider the road my gift to the citizens of Alaska.

And while I’m here, I would like to take a moment to thank my indefatigable editor, Anne Groell, and my faithful agent, Cynthia Manson, for all their help with this book. As any author knows, writing a novel is a long journey, and it’s nice to have such wonderful company along the way.
