Overview

St. Petersburg, 1860. After a member of the imperial family is assassinated, Fyodor Dostoevsky meets a man institutionalized in a mental asylum — who confesses taking part in the terrorist plot and reveals that his fellow conspirators are planning to kill another of the Tsar's relatives. Plagued by debts and struggling to finish his latest novel, Dostoevsky must act fast to call off the attack.
