b) A Courtly Century. A story full of intrigues and mistaken motives. A bit of Don Juan spiced up with a dab of Marquis de Sade. Love conquers all obstacles. Virtue triumphs. Evil is vanquished. The action unfolds amidst the grandeur of a Baroque garden.

A conflict between two opposing worlds played out by a KGB agent and a
FBI agent. Stakeouts, shadowy figures, dangerous pursuits – all
played out on the narrow, winding streets of Prague.
