In part one, Grigori Rasputin went from a powerless peasant to the spiritual advisor of the Tsar and Tsarina, the most powerful couple in Russia. Now, Rasputin’s “healing abilities” have been put to the test. If he saves their son, Alexei, he can solidify his place of power. If he doesn’t, he’s gone for good. Unfortunately for Rasputin, whatever the outcome, he’s already made enemies who are scheming to bring him down - dead or alive. 

In this episode we discuss sexual assault. If you or someone you know is a victim of sexual assault, you can contact the National Sexual Assault Hotline in the U. S. by calling 1 800 656 HOPE. That's 1 800 656 4673.
