From Russia with terror.

Josef Rosenburg fled the Jewish pogroms in Russia with Tanya, the small daughter of family friends, the only survivor of a brutal massacre.They survive in Amsterdam after a walk across thousands of miles in bitter cold, to meet a rogue Pieter, who displays a worrying attraction to Tanya. When Pieter shows Josef a magnificent uncut diamond which he had stolen from a South African miner, Josef sees a way to make a life for himself and Tanya in London but at the cost of Tanya's innocence.He deliberately leaves Tanya in Pieters care for 10 minutes, knowing full well what the terrible result will be.Returning to to the screams of the terrified child, he kills Pieter and takes the stone.They reach London where he cuts the stone, selling it for a huge sum which enables him to begin a diamond and jewellery business.The story continues as a family saga over several generations, much affected by Josef's crime and with long lasting consequences.
