4-6Missing series.
Time-travel trickery lands Jonah, Katherine, and Chip in Russia before the Romanovs' assassination, along with Gavin and Daniella, who are actually the royal children Alexei and Anastasia. Between the complexity and violence of the historical moment and the usual matters of time-travel logic and ethics, this installment takes on too much, but it should be a welcome addition for series fans.
